Alfred Ceramic Art Museum presents upcoming Spring 2026 Exhibition:
"Sharif Bey: Autoethnography"
February 12th to July 19th, 2026
Opening Reception: Thursday, February 12, 5-7pm
Sharif Bey is an ambidextrous user of clay, as comfortable making pots as he is making poetic figures, daunting wall pieces or the gargantuan necklaces of his "Adornment" series. His work can be read at many levels - as an exploration of the multifaceted "ethnos" of his life; as an investigation of how meanings can shift according to context; as a ceramic practice that refuses to remain fixed in any one category, celebrating instead the endless possibilities of the medium. This show presents the diversity of Bey's practice, which nevertheless retains a united, and utterly unique, style and vision.

Official Holiday Dates: December 22, 2025 - January 2, 2026
Please note that payroll processing will be adjusted due to the upcoming holiday break. Important deadlines and instructions are outlined below.
Payroll #1 (Pay Period: 12/07/25 - 12/20/25)
Timesheet Submission - All Employees Not Working Over the Break
If you will not be working during the holiday break, please submit your timesheet(s) before leaving for break on 12 19, 2025.
Supervisors: please review and approve these timesheets on 12/19/25 before you leave.
How to Record Holiday Time
Payroll #2 (Pay Period: 12/21/25 - 1/3/26)
Holiday Time for Regular Employees
Under the Holiday section of your timesheet, enter the designated number of holiday hours per day based on your role and accrued leave. This will typically be 7, 7.5, or 8 hours.
Holiday Time for Temporary Employees
Temporary employees (full-time or part-time, excluding student workers and interns) should enter 4 hours of Holiday time for each day they would normally work.
If you work your regular scheduled hours on a holiday, you will receive only the difference up to 4 hours.
Example: If you are scheduled for 3 hours on 12/26/25 and you work those 3 hours, you will receive 1 hour of Holiday time.
Employees Working During the Holiday Break
Hourly employees who are required to work during the break should enter both:
1. Hours worked
2. Holiday time
This will result in two entries for each day worked during the holiday period.
Only essential staff with prior Supervisor approval should record work hours during the holiday break.

The Village of Alfred recently passed a local law pertaining to parking violations and the consequences of not paying parking tickets. In a recent letter from the village police department, police announced:
"The law states that any vehicle with eight (8) or more unpaid parking tickets can be towed at the owner's expense from the street, parking lot, or a place of public property. Once the vehicle is towed, the registered owner of the said vehicle will be responsible for paying the balance of unpaid parking violations to the Village Court, along with the towing and impound expenses accrued."
Enforcement of the new law will begin Feb. 1, 2026.
Police say a certified letter will be sent to the owner of any vehicle once that vehicle has accrued six or more unpaid parking tickets.
Questions regarding this policy may be addressed to village police Chief Joshua VanSkiver, 607 587-8878
