Bill McKibben

Lectures & Talks

Here’s the thing: we know the planet is changing, maybe faster than we can change with it—and every so often, someone comes along who helps us see just how much is on the line. That someone is Bill McKibben. He didn’t invent environmentalism, but he brought it into the bloodstream of public discourse: his 1989 book The End of Nature is often credited as the first mainstream book about climate change. In a world of cyborg-doom headlines and abstract megatons of carbon, McKibben’s voice remains grounded: forest trails, cold rivers, hometowns at risk, and the culture built around them—all… (845) 876-2903

Film

The perfect heist movie doesn’t exist—but The Hot Rock comes close. Released in 1972, just as New Hollywood was hitting its stride, this sly, low-key jewel theft caper snuck in between Robert Redford’s star-making turns in Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid and The Sting. Directed by Peter Yates (Bullitt) and adapted by William Goldman from (Newburgh native) Donald Westlake’s novel, the film delivers a generous helping of mid-century cool without trying too hard—something Hollywood largely forgot how to do. Redford plays Dortmunder, a career thief with the face of a golden retriever and the luck of a guy… (845) 876-2515
Tribute to Happy Traum

Music Shows

If you remember Happy Traum—not simply as a fingerpicking master, but as a walking folk-archive with the warmest handshake in the room—then this is your kind of evening. “A Tribute to Happy Traum” takes residence at the Colony in Woodstock, turning over the stage to musicians, admirers and maybe even a few old friends to celebrate a man who taught generations how to flat-pick, tell stories and keep the line between tradition and invention humming. Traum arrived in the Greenwich Village scene just as the folk revival stirred, picked up the traditions of Brownie McGhee, hung out with the…

Reason & Ruckus

305 Main St, Poughkeepsie Poughkeepsie

Comedy

Byron Bertram arrives onstage looking mildly confused, vaguely disappointed, and slightly dangerous—which is to say, exactly as advertised. The Canadian stand-up has toured internationally for two decades, but it was his creation of Sergei Putinski—“Russia’s only living comedian”—that turned him into a social media problem, in the best sense. In the age of safe takes and sponsored personalities, Bertram doubles down on the ancient craft of being a little unhinged. What to expect at Reason and Ruckus in Poughkeepsie? Controlled chaos. Bertram slips between his own voice and the Sergei persona like a pickpocket changing jackets—one minute he’s dry,… 8452325348

Art Exhibits, Outdoors & Recreation

Olana is the most intact historic artist’s environment in the U.S., encompassing the Main House, historic farm complex, and 250-acre landscape designed by Frederic Church. Despite its preservation, several structures from Church’s time were removed before Olana became a landmark. Their absence erased stories of those who built and used them. Foundations, archaeological evidence, photographs, maps, or oral histories remain. These buildings vanished, but their stories live in the landscape. For "What’s Missing?" The Olana Partnership commissioned Ellen Harvey and Gabriela Salazar to create site-specific artworks responding to these missing pieces of Olana’s landscape history. olana.org/whatsmissing 518-751-0344
