The March of the Nutcracker is a new community art initiative, bringing life-size, volunteer-built Nutcracker statues to the Haines Falls, Tannersville, and Hunter 23A corridor, creating a colorful, festive installation that showcases the community's creativity. The statues are sponsored by businesses in the area and are created by local artists and Hunter-Tannersville K-12 students. 

Palenville, once home to Hudson River School masters like Thomas Cole and Frederick Church, continues its artistic legacy with the return of its Tiny Art Galleries. Five brightly colored boxes are scattered throughout the hamlet, each filled with miniature original works by local artists—free for anyone to take. The galleries feature pocket-sized paintings, pottery, quilts, and more, all under 3x3 inches and labeled with the artist’s contact information. This year’s display runs August 9–24, alongside the Palenville Open Studio Tour on August 16, when visitors can explore home studios and local galleries.

Hometown Heroes is a living tribute to the servicemen and women from the Town of Cairo who served our country from the Revolutionary War to the present day. Each banner will honor a specific Town of Cairo former or present serviceman or woman and will include their picture, branch of service, & military conflict in which they served.

From Memorial Day to Veterans Day you can find banners of U.S veterans throughout the village of Athens! 

Each individual banner honors a specific Catskill Veteran or present resident who served in the Armed Forces. Banners are displayed throughout the Town of Catskill, hamlets of Palenville, Leeds, Kiskatom, and Cementon.

The banners honor Coxsackie veterans who were a lifelong resident, a long term resident, or one who was living in Coxsackie when they were drafted/ enlisted.

They are located throughout the village of Coxsackie.

The banners bring a great sense of pride in our community.

The Town of Durham is proud to announce the start of the “Hometown Heroes Banner” program recognizing service men and women from the Durham area who have served or are serving our country in a branch of the military.

We honor the veterans in our lives, who have been Honorably Discharged or who are currently serving in our Armed Forces.
