The Barrett Art Center is thrilled that the picturesque village of Pawling, NY has agreed to host this professional paint-out. Pawling is located only about 60 miles north of New York City off Route 22. It is accessible by train from New York City on the Hudson-Harlem Line. The Village of Pawling’s downtown features historic architecture, and the surrounding countryside offers rolling foothills of the Berkshire’s, the Appalachian Trail, the Great Swamp (one of New York State’s largest wetlands), and parkland and Nature Conservancy properties. The Lathrop Center is located in Lakeside Park, a beautiful location in itself with a spring-fed lake and sprawling vistas. For more information about the area please visit www.pawlingchamber.org. The Annual Spring paint-out is a great Hudson Valley event to be enjoyed by Pawling residents and visitors alike!
