Museum Hosts Virtual Lecture;“Warning Signs: Climate Change in the Hudson Valley

Picture
KINGSTON, N.Y. – The Hudson River Maritime Museum is pleased to announce the upcoming lecture “Warning Signs:  Climate Change in the Hudson Valley,” held in-person on Wednesday, May 25, 2022 at 7:00 PM.
​
The signs of climate change are all around us; rising sea levels, more frequent and severe storms, heatwaves, and droughts are becoming the norm both globally, and right here in the Hudson Valley. Scientists warn that we must take significant action this decade to save ourselves from the most serious consequences of a warming earth. Learn what the HRMM is doing to educate the public about the causes, consequences, and actions that we can take to meet this challenge with its new exhibit, Warming Signs: Climate Change in the Hudson Valley. Participants will have the opportunity to tour both the new indoor and outdoor exhibits which are scheduled to open in June.

Russ Lange worked as a scientist and engineer at IBM for 40 years.  He retired from the position of IBM Fellow and VP of Technology Strategy.  He became interested in climate change in the early 80s while at IBM Research.  In 2006 Russ became the Executive Director for HRMM and has been involved in its leadership in various capacities since.  His special interest is exhibit development and has been involved, together with his wife and other teams, in the creation of over 25 exhibits at HRMM, The Newburgh Historical Society, The D&H Canal Museum and IBM.
​
Meg Clark: With thirty years of experience as a classroom teacher and environmental educator, Meg has a deep appreciation for the need to provide students with meaningful opportunities to explore their natural world.  In her capacity as elementary science and math specialist for Ulster BOCES and the Kingston School district, she has written curricula, provided teacher training, and served as an adjunct professor for the School of Education at SUNY New Paltz. Her classroom experience has made her acutely aware of the capacity that we all have to impact children’s lives."

Museum Hosts Philippe Petit for Special Program “Nuts for Knots” Knot-Tying Workshop

Museum Hosts Philippe Petit for Special Program “Nuts for Knots” Knot-Tying Workshop

Kingston, N.Y. - The Hudson River Maritime Museum is excited to host “Nuts for Knots,” a knot-tying workshop by high wire artist Philippe Petit on Sunday, June 5, 2022. 

Best known as the man who secretly rigged a wire between the towers of the World Trade Center, Philippe Petit has performed on the high wire at majestic sites all over the world, including Notre Dame, the Eiffel Tower, the Sydney Harbour Bridge, Lincoln Center and Grand Central Station. He personally rigs every wire on which he walks and has thus become a self-taught engineer and master rigger. His life depends on knots. 
In this hands-on workshop, Philippe will share a selection of loops, bends, hitches, binding knots and termination knots you probably don’t know you cannot live without. Philippe shows knots in action. He gives each participant a yard of cord, which everyone ties, and everyone succeeds. Because Philippe’s methods are original and based on mnemonics, they are simple to learn and unforgettable. Students will learn vicious knots that will never come undone. For example, shoelace knot that will never loosen, improvised handcuffs, and how to secure your drooling camel to a palm tree and yet in half a second be able to flee an attacking caravan. All this and much more! Learn a few practical knots of the 200 ones Philippe knows. You’ll hear historical anecdotes and colorful stories, see demonstrations of unusual variations of well-known knots, and odds are good that you’ll see at least one rope magic trick. 

“Nuts for Knots” will take place on Sunday, June 5, 2022 at the Hudson River Maritime Museum in Kingston, NY. Two workshop time slots are available, either 10AM-11:30AM, or 1:00-2:30PM. Each workshop has a maximum number of 14 participants so sign up soon to reserve your spot! Registration is $20 for individual tickets or two tickets for $35.
Participants can register at hrmm.org

Museum Hosts Triple Exhibit Opening
First Reception Since COVID Celebrates Three New Exhibits

KINGSTON, N.Y. - ​The Hudson River Maritime Museum is pleased to announce that after two long years it is finally able to host an exhibit opening reception for members and the public. On Sunday, May 29, 2022 from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., guests are welcome to view not one but three exhibits. “A New Age of Sail: The History and Future of Sail Freight on the Hudson River” is the brand new exhibit for 2022 which will be opening for the first time that afternoon. The exhibit opening reception will also celebrate the 2021 exhibit “Warning Signs: Climate Change in the Hudson Valley” and the 2020 exhibit “Mary Powell: Queen of the Hudson.” 
Picture

​“A New Age of Sail” examines the long history of sailing cargo vessels on the Hudson River, from the 17th century until their decline in the mid-20th century, and how the lessons of that era might help us combat the challenges of climate change in the 21st century.

Tracking challenges to and opportunities of sail freight throughout the decades, the exhibit will also include information about late 20th century sail freight endeavors, including those which came out of the Oil Crisis of the 1970s, as well as research and development of improvements on sail freight technologies from the mid-20th century to today, including future plans currently being developed in other nations. The schooner Apollonia will be one of the modern vessels highlighted in the exhibit and an exhibit partner, with a satellite traveling exhibit aboard.

“Warning Signs: Climate Change in the Hudson Valley” examines the impacts of climate change locally, using local climate data, as well as provides general information about the science behind climate change and how individuals and communities can mitigate the effects of global warming.

“Mary Powell: Queen of the Hudson” covers the role of one of the Hudson River’s most famous steamboats in American history, and how and why she became beloved by so many people.

Both “A New Age of Sail” and “Mary Powell: Queen of the Hudson” were supported in part by the Maurice D. Hinchey Hudson River Valley National Heritage Area. “Warning Signs: Climate Change in the Hudson Valley” was supported by funding from the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation’s Hudson River Estuary Program.

Tickets to the reception are $15 for the general public and free for Hudson River Maritime Museum members. For more information, including tickets, visit www.hrmm.org/exhibit-opening.

A Conversation with Bill McKibben-climate change activist.

A conversation with Bill McKibben- climate change activist.

Picture
Kingston N.Y. - On Saturday, May 28th from 3PM to 5PM, the Hudson River Maritime Museum will be hosting an informal talk entitled 'A Conversation with Bill McKibben' in The Barn at the Museum's campus. In this open discussion, Bill will discuss his experience as a climate change activist, his books, and how ordinary people, especially of his generation, can get involved to make a difference in their communities. 

What have we learned from the decades-long struggle to address the climate crisis? How are the impacts of climate change and the over-use of natural resources linked to social justice? How do we re-engage activism from people who are in their 60s and remind them of their American Dream and to fight for our common future?

Bill McKibben is one of our nation’s most influential environmental activists. He founded the global grassroots climate campaign 350.org, serves as the Schumann Distinguished Scholar in Environmental Studies at Middlebury College, has won the Gandhi Peace Prize, was awarded the Right Livelihood Award in the Swedish Parliament – sometimes called the alternative Nobel – and was the recipient of the annual Puffin/Nation Prize for Creative Citizenship. 
Bill is a prolific writer and has penned over 20 books–including The End of Nature (1989) regarded as the first book for a general audience about global warming. His new book, The Flag, the Cross, and the Station Wagon: A Graying American Looks Back at His Suburban Boyhood and Wonders What the Hell Happened, is a call-to-arms. He digs deep into our history and the environmental crisis and takes an honest look at how our country may have failed to realize the mythic American Dream of the 1950's for many of its citizens.

This event is free to the public, but attendees are encouraged to make reservations as seating will be limited.
​Tickets can be reserved here:

Masks are encouraged for this in-person event.

Museum Hosts Tracy Edwards MBE for Virtual Lecture; "Maiden Full Circle"

Picture

​
KINGSTON, N.Y. – The Hudson River Maritime Museum is pleased to announce the upcoming lecture “Maiden Full Circle,” held virtually on Wednesday, March 16, 2022 at 7:00 PM.

Tracy Edwards MBE inspired a generation of women as the skipper of Maiden. She led the first all-female crew to compete in the notoriously difficult Whitbread Round the World Race in 1988/89.

Fast forward to 2014 when Tracy learned that Maiden had been abandoned and was rotting away in the Seychelles.  She knew that she had to save this unique piece of maritime history and set about raising funds to buy her and bring her back to the UK.  In April 2017 Maiden was shipped to Southampton and began an extensive restoration and refit and The Maiden Factor project was born.

Tracy Edwards MBE rose to prominence when she Skippered Maiden, the first all-female crew to sail around the world when Maiden raced in the 1989/90 WRTWR. Maiden came second overall and Tracy became the first woman in its history to be named Yachtsman of the Year. Tracy then created and skippered the first all-female crew to attempt the Jules Verne, Non-Stop Round the World Record.  In 2000 she created and managed the world’s first mixed gender racing team and in 2005 the first round the world race to start and finish in the Middle East. Now runs The Maiden Factor.

Educating girls, everywhere, is one of the smartest investments we can make to lift communities out of poverty, grow economies and build back better from the pandemic.

Local Organizations to Host Rescuing the River Exhibit

Picture
Kingston N.Y.- The Hudson River Maritime Museum’s Rescuing the River exhibit has captivated museum visitors for the past three years, and now, it is going on the road. Tracing the roles of individuals and organizations in the environmental movement in New York State, the exhibit focuses on Scenic Hudson, Clearwater, Riverkeeper, and the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, from the 1960s to today.

The exhibit and its exceedingly relevant message will soon be available to the greater community thanks to three local organizations. Visitors can see the exhibit for themselves at the Newburgh Free Library during the month of April 2022, at the Norrie Point Environmental Center from May through July 2022, and in the Ulster County CCE’s Youth Building at the Ulster County Fair from August 2nd-7th 2022.

This exhibit is sponsored by Bank of America. Additional funding for this exhibit was generously provided by a grant from Humanities NY with additional support from Hudson River Sloop Clearwater, Riverkeeper, and Marist College.

Museum Hosts instructor for hybrid Lecture; “Why I Love Rowing”

Picture
KINGSTON, N.Y. – The Hudson River Maritime Museum is pleased to announce the upcoming lecture “Why I Love Rowing,” held in-person on Wednesday, April 27, 2022 at 7:00 PM.
​
There are many reasons to have an interest in rowing: its history, its evolution, the physics, the geography, the techniques, the benefits, the joy and the pain. There are a million stories to tell about it. This one is from rowing aficionada, Nelsie Aybar-Grau.

It all started when Nelsie moved to Kingston and she was introduced to rowing by a friend. After a few years she became certified on the Concept2 indoor rowing machine, then she picked up a Learn to Row Instructor's Certification from US Rowing. To track all the interesting things she found out about rowing she created a Facebook page and website: theRondoutRower.com. Then when asked to teach young participants in the HRMM Youthboat Project how to row a traditional wooden Whitehall boat, her interest in rowing went into high gear. Last summer she built a wooden tandem wherry AND participated in a row around Manhattan. Why is rowing so compelling, you ask?  Join us and see!

Nelsie Aybar-Grau is a longtime Hudson River Maritime Museum volunteer and rowing instructor. She is “The Rondout Rower,” and is currently working on a book on her rowing experiences.

“There is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats.”- Kenneth Grahame
