Exhibition poster. In 2019, TAUNY hosted and assisted in curating the exhibition From Jamaica to Peru with photographer, filmmaker, and guest curator Ben Stechschulte. In this exhibition, Stechschulte presents original photos and a new film created for the exhibition, as well as selected materials shared by the Jamaican apple pickers and the Forrence family, highlighting the contributions and exceptional craft of this multi-generational community of men who have traveled thousands of miles each year to work on the orchard since the 1970s. Along with developing close personal and working relationships with the Forrence family, their skill, dedication, and experience are essential to the orchard's work and its viability as an ongoing business and multi-generational family tradition. The poster photo by Ben Stechschulte features Joel Levy at Forrence Orchards, Peru, NY, 2016.
