ILLUMINATIONS LIGHT SHOW
Laurel Group Sponsors Illuminations 2023: The Many Faces of Home Light Show & Multimedia Installation at The Heckscher Museum of Art on October 8, 2023

A dynamic multimedia display of art, light, and sound, sure to delight and engage all audiences, Illuminations 2023: The Many Faces of Home will be a highlight of the annual Long Island Fall Festival at Heckscher Park this year! Illuminations 2023 includes a custom-made collection of dynamic, short, digital art animations, which will be projected onto the Museum’s façade and choreographed to music.

Illuminations 2023 was sponsored by The Huntington Chamber of Commerce, Town of Huntington, Laurel Group, & M&T Bank.

This socially engaged and collaborative visual art installation has been specifically created for the Museum by a team of international digital artists working with Executive Director Heather Arnet, and visual artist Han Qin, an adjunct professor at Stony Brook University, in collaboration with composer Margaret Schedel and independent curator Chiarina Chen.
The projected art installation includes three acts. The first, HOME by artist Han Qin, is an animated film projection about the artist’s personal journey. It showcases ocean hues of blue and a school of fish transfiguring before the eyes into groups of people swimming to a new home, a beautiful, captivating portrait of the journey to a new land, a new island home…Long Island.

The second act, My New Land – Cultural Fluidity, created by Han Qin and composer Margaret Schedel, portrays and celebrates the immigration experience by featuring 3-D image projection glowing portraits of diverse community members who have immigrated to Huntington and made it their home. As part of the project, community members voted to select who to honor and chose the following individuals who are featured in the installation: Yanping Yu, Xin Jin, Lucie Kwon, Clara Cortes, and Frank Sprouse-Guzman.

The evening will culminate with a grand finale – a custom-made collection of dynamic, short, animation pieces choreographed to music entitled Enchanted Current: A Collection Digital Play. The digital art pieces included in the finale were created by six international digital artists: Colton Arnold, Blake Carrington, Silent Desautels, Shuyi Li, Koi Ren, and Yehwan Song. This piece was co-curated by Han Qin and award winning New York based artist and independent curator Chiarina Chen. Original music for Illuminations 2023 composed by internationally recognized composer and cellist, Professor Margaret Schedel, Co-Director of Stony Brook University’s Computer Music Department.

New Design Studio
Laurel Group is growing! With the need for increased space, an adjoining property was purchased and re-furbished creating an all-new, top-notch design studio. The character of this historic building was maintained by showcasing the original timber wood beams in the ceiling and walls, while adding a modern touch by updating the staircase. New furniture and a Vibe Board finished it off creating an ideal collaborative workspace for our outstanding design team. Per Lead Designer Justin, “This new space really allows the designers to work together and learn from each other. Everyone is thrilled with the new studio!”

BREWERY’S NEW BEER TO BENEFIT HUNTINGTON PARKS
The Six Harbors Brewery has launched a new beer to help raise funds for the 1653 Foundation, a nonprofit that aims to restore and enhance parklands and public spaces in the Town of Huntington.

The new beer is called Heckscher Park Helles, sold with four different labels featuring historic photos of the town. Proceeds from the sales of the new brew, available at select restaurants and bars in Huntington, will go directly to the 1653 Foundation.

Heckscher Park Helles is the brainchild of Mark Huewetter, the owner of Six Harbors Brewery, and was crafted in coordination with the nonprofit. The 1653 Foundation aspires to build an effective and visible organization that promotes the principles of world-class park management and environmental excellence to improve the quality of open space in Huntington.

Six Harbors Brewing Company is located at 243 New York Ave. in Huntington.
Alleyway Project
Once again 1653 Foundation, Chaired by Mark McAteer (CEO of Laurel Group) steps up to improve public spaces in the Town of Huntington! This alleyway serves as the only direct route from the New Street Parking Lot to the downtown entertainment district on NY Ave. Unfortunately, the path has been unsightly and unsafe for years, hindering the incredible potential for people to gather, socialize, enjoy the arts and contribute to the local economy. Laurel Group is a key part of this project providing a pro bono concept plan to help the community visualize the possibilities of the alley. On 9/15/23 1653 Foundation in collaboration with National Grid volunteers helped to clean up the alleyway during a public service event. The effort to clean-up this blighted alleyway in the heart of the Huntington downtown area included; removing debris, weeding and enhancing the pedestrian walkway. This clean-up project is the first step to revitalize the alley way into a vibrant and safe space that promotes art, culture, and commerce, while also enhancing the overall community experience.

Lake Mineola Invasive Species Seminar
Our own Mark McAteer was the primary speaker at the Lake Mineola Invasive Species Seminar. His presentation focused on invasive terrestrial plants including Japanese Barberry, Wisteria, Burning Bush and Stilt Grass, all of which are common in the area. Mark provided information on identifying, control, eradication and prevention of each of these species. Attendees also learned about the impact each of these plants have on the local environment. Those present indicated they are willing to help with control and prevention in addition to spreading the word to any neighbors who were unable to attend. (shown in photo: Mark)

To the Laurel Group Team,

My family and I just wanted to say how happy we are with the outstanding job you did in creating a paradise for us! Not only does our home now look enticing as our family and friends pull up, but they never want to leave once they start enjoying our backyard.

Add the wonderful landscaping that provides color throughout the seasons along with your regular maintenance and it truly is a place that we don’t want to leave. Thanks again for all of the work you put into our property. It has been a pleasure working with you and we look forward to upgrading our furniture with your store next season!

Sincerely,

Internship Program
The Laurel Group is proud to offer a summer internship program to college students seeking to hone their skills and increase their practical knowledge of landscape design.

Our internship program allows the student to get a real feel of the day-to-day work of landscape designer and provides them with the skills they will need to succeed after graduation. This summer Megan joined our team to prepare for her career in landscape architecture when she graduates in May 2024. Megan indicated, “I am enjoying my time here at Laurel Group. The design team has been very welcoming and willing to share their knowledge and include me in many projects.

Laurel employees’ product knowledge is impressive due to training like the one the design team attended in February at the Renson New York City studios. Designers spent two days learning about the Renson pergolas, their features, and accessories and have since applied this expertise when speaking with customers about the options available to them. Devin feels, “The ongoing education provided by The Laurel Group has been invaluable, furthering my knowledge of the field which benefits not only me, but our clients as well.”

BLOOMBERG NEWS / CRAINS NEW YORK – POOL CRAZE/DELAYS
While the changes in leaf blower regulations have been a recent topic of discussion, so has the impact of supply chain, labor, and building permit issues. This was brought to light in the Bloomberg article dated 5/18/22 which indicated that these issues are even affecting those in the Hamptons. Families started the process of purchasing and installing pools in Spring 2022 for hopeful completion in Spring 2023. Mark was quoted saying, “What used to take four weeks [to get approved] now takes 90 days. If we submit something in January, and [those in the town building department] still haven’t read it in April. I can’t say for sure you’ll be swimming next summer.”

Alex’s skill and eagerness to learn earned him a job offer upon graduation. He happily accepted indicating, “The internship program proved to me that this is the field for me. I compared notes with other students and interviewed with other companies, but the Laurel Group was the one that stuck out for me. Their focus on collaboration, training, hard work, and the overall friendly environment made The Laurel Group an easy choice for my career.”

Hi guys!

I just wanted to take a minute to send out my favorite kind of note.

Yesterday the grounds crew was here to do the leaf cleanup. They did their usual excellent job, but that’s not why I’m writing. We left while they were here and left the garage door open — I know there were leaves and dust in there when we left, which had nothing to do with your guys. When we came back, the garage was spotless; blown out and looking better than it has in months (a lot of our contractors used it as a workshop so there was sawdust and metal shavings etc). Moreover, none of it was in the driveway, so they must have scooped it all up with the leaves. It was such a nice surprise, and so appreciated.

It’s those kinds of little above-and-beyond touches that make it so great working with you guys.

I thought it might be nice to get a note saying what a great job you’re doing and how happy we are as clients.

All the best,

~ Schwarz Family

CBS NEWS – TOWN OF HUNTINGTON LEAF BLOWER BAN

The Laurel Group’s reputation as experts in the field have led to being highlighted in several noteworthy news outlets including CBS2s news. Reporter Carolyn Gusoff reached out to Mark for her 11/10/21 story regarding gas powered leaf blower restrictions. Mark indicated that he is not against the change, but it comes with a cost. "It costs us more in labor, because it's not as productive, it's not as powerful. And in addition, the machinery costs more, the battery life is inadequate," he said. Our hard-working crews were also included in the televised story demonstrating the differences in the blowers. To read the full article please click here.

Newsday – Huntington Town officials further limiting gas-powered leaf blower use

In recent media news, Newsday interviewed Mark for a story about the transition from gas leaf blowers to electric leaf blowers. Updated laws ban the use of the blowers anytime on Saturdays between Memorial Day and Labor Day for both residential and commercial properties. Previously the ban was only for Sundays and holidays. Electric powered blowers are not restricted. Mark said that easing away from gas-powered leaf blowers is best for everyone to adapt. To read the full article please click here.
