The Hyde Collectionin Glens Falls, NY has spent its time closed by COVID-19 curating just the right collection of works to present to the public once it reopened. They are once again welcoming visitors. So, Hello Again!

The museum’s halls include the Summer Bomb Pop exhibit, a collaboration from the Tang Teaching Museum at Skidmore College in Saratoga Springs. The collaboration features art from both museums, including some work in the Hyde’s collection that hasn’t seen the light of day since being acquired, such as an Andy Warhol piece. Also, there is an exhibit of new sculpture by John Van Alstine.

To tell us more, we welcome Hyde Collection CEO Norm Dascher and Jonathan Canning - Director of Curatorial Affairs and Programming.
