40 years ago, the Rubinstein family set their sights on creating the region’s premier art and crafts fair. In the years since, the Woodstock-New Paltz Art & Crafts Fair has become a beloved staple of the Hudson Valley’s robust maker landscape, and has been voted the #2 Best Contemporary Craft Show nationwide by Sunshine Artist Magazine. Set against the picturesque Shawangunk Ridge, the three-day, open-air market will showcase nearly 200 juried artists and makers from Vermont to California, including decades’ long exhibitors and emerging creative voices.

You may not be aware but the Hudson Valley has been officially on United State postage stamps and you can actually still buy the series online. In August of 2014, the United States Postal Service (USPS) unveiled the Hudson River School Stamps.
The Hudson River School is a romanticized style of painting the grew in popularity in during the 1800 s. Locally, Thomas Cole and Frederic Church are well-known artists who painted in this style. The Hudson Valley is still rich with modern-day artists who continue to paint in this Hudson Valley tradition.
Kevin Cook, an artist who lives and has his studio at Huguenot Street in New Paltz, is one of the locally collected artists that still paints in this traditional style that focuses on landscapes and the dramatic light found in the Catskills and the Hudson Valley. Kevin s work along with other Hudson River School style painters can still be seen and collected at galleries in Rhinebeck, Beacon, Hudson and New Paltz.
We hear all kinds of noises in the night air in the Hudson Valley. Some are hard to identify but others are unmistakable. Take the Barred Owl for instance,. Their call is easy to identify and actually has a little saying that goes with it to help people identify that they are listening to a Barred Owl. The saying is Who cooks, Who cooks, Who cooks for you .
If you listen to owls at night in the wooded areas around Poughkeepsie, Kingston and Newburgh there is a good chance you have heard this distinctive call. Ulster counties ridges are full of Barred Owls. A great night out owl listening can result in you hearing the owls call to each other from various parts of the woods.
