Main Hall Exhibit Ribbon Cutting

Sunday, May 25^th – 11am

Over the past several years, the staff at SUNY ESF’s Newcomb Campus have been dedicated to creating a new exhibit at the Adirondack Interpretive Center (AIC). This exhibit highlights the connection between SUNY ESF’s main campus and the AIC in Newcomb while showcasing ESF’s presence within the Adirondack Park, across New York State, and internationally.

The completion of this exhibit is the result of extensive collaboration and hard work by the Newcomb Campus staff, the communications department, and our exhibit designer, Bob MacNamara, (LA, ’73). To celebrate this achievement, we invite you to join us for a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Sunday, May 25th, at 11:00 AM at the AIC. Light lunch to follow.

The Cornell Cooperative Extension Agritourism Program Work Team, in collaboration with the CCE Administration Program Work Team’s Special Needs Fund and Cornell Cooperative Extension of Essex and Clinton Counties, presents an engaging, hands-on networking session focused on strengthening the agritourism industry in the North Country and across New York State.

Celebrate art and music across the historic site.

From evening songs around the campfire, Ned’s plein-air paintings, and Anna’s photographs and moss gardens, art, music, and creativity played a central role at Camp Santanoni. During this event, we will offer programs, activities, and opportunities to make and watch art across the historic site. We anticipate having special guest artists and musicians across the site and will announce details soon! We invite you to ask them about their work, and bring your own art supplies to join in.

At the Main Camp, join us for a special Art and Music Tours at 11 am, 1 pm, and 3 pm. The Gate Lodge, Farm, and Main Camp will feature art and activity tables with coloring pages, paper, and simple art supplies so everyone can join in on the fun. All skill levels are welcome as we celebrate the interconnection of art, music, history, and nature in the Adirondacks. 

We are still looking for artists and volunteers! If you’d like to share your artistic or musical talent or would like to help with this event, please reach out to kelly@aarch.org. We look forward to hearing from you!

Do you think you know Camp Santanoni?

We’ll let you in on a secret… there are so many more stories to tell! On this program, we will explore lesser-known perspectives on Santanoni ranging from the site’s Indigenous history to the ongoing, often unseen work of maintaining the camp. This wide-ranging program will highlight Santanoni’s labor history over time, the evolution of mechanical systems and infrastructure at the Main Camp, the Pruyn family’s role in the anti-suffrage movement, the intricacies of managing historic sites in the Adirondack Forest Preserve, and more! (Did you think we’d spill all our secrets in the description?) Join us as we uncover some of Santanoni’s hidden stories and further broaden the interpretation of this treasured National Historic Landmark.

This outing is led by Santanoni Interpretive Coordinator Jennifer Betsworth and AARCH Executive Director Erin Tobin.

There is a suggested donation of $45. Space on a horse-drawn wagon is available by first-come, first-served reservation.

Please note that this tour involves walking on uneven ground and navigating some stairs. Entering and exiting the Main Camp is done by boarding a wagon (requiring two steps to enter and exit) or 9.6-mile (round-trip) hike/bike on a dirt road (bring your own bike).
