Rescuing the River: 50 Years of Environmental Activism on the Hudson

FREE for Hudson River Maritime Museum Members
Riverkeeper Members get $5.00 discount on tickets

The arrival of 2019 heralds some very important anniversaries – Hudson River Sloop Clearwater was launched and the National Environmental Policy Act passed in 1969, and Pete Seeger was born in 1919. To commemorate these milestones, the Hudson River Maritime Museum will honor the work the many organizations throughout the Valley whose mission is to clean and protect the Hudson River.

“Rescuing the River: 50 Years of Environmental Activism on the Hudson” seeks to situate the important work of the Hudson River Sloop Clearwater, Riverkeeper, and Scenic Hudson in their proper historical and national context with other regional efforts.

The museum will host an exhibit preview on Friday, April 19th. Tickets are free for museum members, and, for the first time ever general admission tickets will be available $15.00, plus Riverkeeper members will get a special $5.00 discount!

Tickets include wine and light refreshments and Riverkeeper staff will be on hand to join in the celebration. Before the preview, free deck tours of the Clearwater will be available to the public from 4:15pm to 5:45 pm.
