Hudson River Science: A Data-Driven Interpretive Exhibit

Opening Reception
Saturday, December 10, 6-8pm 
199 Main Street, Beacon 

An opening reception to celebrate the launch of Hudson River Science: A Data-Driven Interpretive Exhbit  will take place on Saturday, December 10 -- a Beacon Second Saturday -- from 6 - 8 pm at the gallery at 199 Main Street.

Hudson River Science is an interactive, educational exhibit created by Clarkson University student Allison Montroy made possible by a 2016 Open Space Institute-sponsored Barnabas McHenry Hudson River Valley Award*. With cutting-edge technology, Hudson River Science aims to inspire connection with the Hudson River by effectively communicating important aspects of river function—including the impact of human influences. This curriculum-based exhibit will be on public display for visitors of all ages throughout the year at the Institute's "Sensor Place" located at the Institute's storefront at 199 Main Street. 

*In honor of Barney McHenry's contributions and accomplishments, the Open Space Institute has established and administers an award to celebrate his leadership and foster future leaders in the Hudson River Valley. The annual award will be used to provide financial support to promising young leaders and exemplary projects that make significant contributions to environmental protection, historic preservation, tourism and the arts in the Hudson River Valley."
