STORM KING ART CENTER

Last weekend I joined members of the Storm King Art Center for a Winter Walk. It was chilly and invigorating to see sculpture as reveled by winter light in their magnificent setting. America's largest sculpture park is one of the many artistic jewels of the Hudson Valley. Located three miles down the road from us on 525 acres the works of Maya Lin, Mark di Suvero, Sol LeWitt, Alexander Calder and many others are displayed. Another Winter Walk is scheduled for members on Saturday, March 6 from 2 to 4 pm. If you can't make the next walk, the Art Center reopens the first week of April. Have lunch or a Saturday dinner in their lovely picnic grove. Don't forget the wine. Visit on them line www.stormkingartcenter.org. Then make that reservation to relax with us in a comfortable guest room at the historic Caldwell Bed and Breakfast.
