Current and Upcoming Events
Our signature annual events are held each year to raise vital funds for the Academy’s program and operating budgets. The events are organized and staffed primarily by volunteers.
Revels
Held annually, this mid-winter moveable feast is one of our oldest and most loved events. The evening begins with festive drinks and hors d’oeuvres at the Academy, with guests moving on to intimate dinners hosted by friends of the Academy. It’s the perfect antidote to winter and a great way to support Spencertown Academy Arts Center.
Hidden Gardens Tour & Market
This very popular Academy annual event, celebrates artful private landscapes in Columbia County. This year the Market on the Green will focus on things to plant, nurture and grow including native perennial shrubs and trees from Arthur’s Point Farm as well as herbs and flowering plants from Guiding Green Thumbs. So mark your calendars and save the date: July 18, 2026
Festival of Books
This beloved annual fundraiser is back on the calendar again for Labor Day Weekend 2026. This past year’s festival was our most successful yet. We look forward to once again providing a vast array of books, all gently used and affordable, as well as hosting a variety distinguished authors. Stay tuned for further information, as our program develops.
