For the first time in decades, the Everson will showcase its peerless art pottery collection in a major exhibition.

Second Movie in Gabriel's Inferno Trilogy Begins Filming in Syracuse
South Warren Street holds starring role
Filming has started for the second movie in the
Gabriel's Inferno trilogy. Earlier this week, South Warren Street provided a setting for
Gabriel's Rapture, a film starring Giulio Berruiti and Melanie Zanetti. The film follows a professor who has an affair with a former student in Italy. When they return to Toronto, students, academic politics and a jealous ex pose obstacles for them. South Warren Street will help to set the scene in "Toronto." The trilogy is based on Sylvia Renard's best selling series, which has been compared to
Fifty Shades of Grey. The first movie in the trilogy finished filming late last year, and is expected to be released this spring. The third movie will be filmed in Central New York later this year.
