Woodworkers of the Hudson Valley Studio Tashtego

This show brings together more than a dozen of our region’s leading and emerg­ing wood­work­ers, high­light­ing a small sliver of the incred­i­ble commu­nity of makers in the Hudson Valley, and their impor­tant place within the broader land­scape of art and design. The exhi­bi­tion reveals the depth of exper­tise and the diver­sity of prac­tice — from func­tional furni­ture and light­ing to sculp­tural vessels and conceptual forms. 

Each piece is unique in its embod­i­ment of an idea. Whether it is trans­form­ing a tradi­tional form into a contem­po­rary silhou­ette, bridg­ing sculp­ture with craft, or embrac­ing the beauty of fine joinery details, the works on display are reflec­tions of the artists who made them and their ideals. 

The Hudson Valley has long been an inspir­ing haven and home for an array of artists and makers. It is impor­tant that as the region devel­ops, we support local makers’ liveli­hoods through a strong commu­nity of peers, mentors, galleries, shops, collec­tors, and appre­ci­a­tors. We hope you’ll be able to join us in cele­brat­ing this wonderful community.
