What our Leaders are saying... |
|
|
|
Our elected and community leaders are excited about the possibility of Riverspace. Read what Congressman Engel is saying…
"Over the past three years the founders of Riverspace have done an outstanding job in the heart of Nyack, the gateway to the Hudson Valley. The program has brought a vibrancy of performing
and visual arts, at an affordable cost and by a dedicated community of volunteers, to Rockland. Riverspace has become a second home to non-profit endeavors from across the County. And with
input from the public, the plan for development of the Riverspace property has been designed to address the master plan of the Village of Nyack."

On Sunday we traveled back in time to the Rockland County of years ago as Riverspace and Elmwood Playhouse presented the staged reading of High Tor! Complete with period costumes and
Hudson River scenery, the staged reading at Riverspace was a unique piece of this year’s Hudson River Quadracentennial celebrations.
Kudos to the amazing cast: Bobby Gonzalez, Rick Apicella, Jacquelina DeMarco, Wayne Duvall, Jim Coakley, Jean Marie Garver, Peter Fruchtman, Walker Jones,
Nico Evers-Swindell, Robert Drake, Michael Pemberton, and Paul Russo. We would be remiss if we did not acknowledge Darrell Larson and Stella Blasenheim for directing and producing the performance.

Lower Hudson Valley Youth Chorus comes to Riverspace |
|
|
|
On Thursday, June 18, at 7:30 PM the Lower Hudson Valley Youth Chorus will present their Spring Concert. The Chorus, founded in 2007 by Jared Rosenblum, provides children a unique opportunity
to sing with a group of students that range in age and ability. The chorus provides an exceptional opportunity for young singers to explore a challenging, diverse repertoire for mixed voices,
ages 7 to 17. Their selections range from classical to jazz, contemporary songs, and Broadway show tunes. Concessions will be provided by Main Essentials. |
