Join us for the next in a series of Virtual Presentations by the New York Historical Society, brought to you in partnership with the Columbia County Libraries Association. These hour-long lectures are delivered live by a Museum docent or curator, accompanied by slides showing artifacts from our collection and recent exhibitions. A short Q&A period will follow each presentation. Please contact the library to register and receive login instructions.

Nature and American Art: Experience the natural beauty of the United States through the eyes of artists in New-York Historical Society's collection. Discover how an evolving understanding of science and the emergence of early conservation movements shaped the 19th-century work of naturalist John James Audubon and the landscape painters of the Hudson River School.
