Culture

The Hudson River has inspired generations of writers and artists, including Washington Irving, America’s first writer to earn his living as an author, and Jasper Cropsey, one of the best-known painters of the Hudson River School. The Clearwater Festival has been held at Croton Point for many years celebrating the river through art and music.
