Holiday Hours at the Tang
We have special holiday hours during Skidmore’s winter break, a great opportunity for families and visiting friends looking for indoor things to do over the holidays. It’s also the last chance to see See It Now: Contemporary Art from the Ann and Mel Schaffer Collection before it closes January 4. From December 16 through January 18, the museum will be open Tuesday–Sunday, noon–5 pm. The museum will be closed December 23–25 and December 30–January 1. With free admission and warm galleries full of contemporary art, the Tang has become a go-to-spot for families and visiting friends looking for an indoor outing over the holidays. For more information, call the Tang Visitor Services Desk at 518-580-8080 or visit https://tang.skidmore.edu.
Christmas Trees and Wreath Sale
The Town of Greenfield Lions Club are selling fresh Christmas trees and wreaths at the corner of Route 9N and Wilton Road. Trees are $55 each, Plain wreaths $20 and wreaths with a bow $25. Lions are on site each weekend until Christmas. On weekdays tree sales are self-serve. A card reader will be available on the weekends for your purchases. Cash and checks also accepted.
Winter Food Drive
The Saratoga County History Center at Brookside Museum is hosting a Winter Food Drive to benefit LifeWorks Community Action. As the temperatures turn colder, SCHC seeks to support our community by raising funds and gathering food items to support those facing food insecurity. Please join us in generosity this holiday season. Non-perishable food items can be dropped off during museum hours. Most needed items include canned fruit and vegetables, pasta, rice, oatmeal, mac and cheese, canned tuna, canned chicken, and peanut butter.
4-H Party for a Cause
The Winter’s Edge Party for a Cause fundraiser will be held on January 17, from 6 – 10 p.m. at The Hideaway at Saratoga Lake Golf Course. Tickets for this event are $20 and include music by Electric Rodeo, 5 Raffle tickets & Light Refreshments (veggies, cheese, crackers, pepperoni). There will be a Silent Auction, Raffle Baskets, and a whole lot of fun. We will also have an open cash bar and a limited menu for additional purchases.
