One year ago, Hudson Valley Wine Magazine paired nineteen jury-

selected Hudson Valley artists with twelve Hudson Valley wineries to

create original works of art reflecting this unique region.

Now, for the first time, over thirty-five works of art created for this unique

program will premiere at the Hudson Valley Art & Wine Grand

Celebration at Lyndhurst, the esteemed historical site overlooking the

majestic Hudson River, on Friday, May 20 – Saturday, May 21, 2011.

Pairing food and wine is an art.

In the Hudson Valley,

pairing food, wine and art is sublime.

THE HUDSON VALLEY

ART in the Hudson Valley

Art and wine share a special kinship in the Hudson Valley. Art and architecture exist

side-by-side with beautiful vineyards and farms that have inspired artists for centuries –

with views that were made famous by painters of the Hudson River School, America’s

first and oldest art movement, founded in the mid-19th century.

WINE in the Hudson Valley The Hudson Valley, the oldest grape growing and wine producing region in the U.S.

and one of the first designated American Viticultural Areas (AVA), is home to Brotherhood

Winery, America’s oldest, continuously-operated winery since 1839, and Benmarl Winery

the country’s oldest vineyard. Wines produced in the Hudson Valley have attained national

and international prominence, with award-winning wines made from classic European

varieties, regional hybrids and even local fruit. Today, there is a renewed, burgeoning

interest in the local wine industry in the Hudson Valley.

“ ...one of the few bright spots...the grape and wine industry isNew York State’s fastest segment of the agriculture and tourism

sectors, generating over $3.76 billion to the State’s economy each year.” –NY Wine & Grape Foundation

ART AND WINE in the Hudson Valley

Once home to artists, inventors and gentleman farmers who shared a love of fine art

and fine wine, the Hudson Valley’s cultural sites now provide visitors an opportunity to

experience the region’s rich cultural past – and its connection to art and wine. Today,

cultural and winery tourism brings economic vitality to the Hudson Valley, with the opening

of world-class museums, galleries, and art and wine trails, drawing visitors from all

over the world.
