Art Show

19^th Century Hudson River School painter, Jasper Cropsey, fell in love with Greenwood Lake in 1843.  He ended up marrying Maria Cooley, the daughter of his boarding house landlord, and eventually built a 23-room home in the area where he lived until 1884. In that time, he produced over one hundred works from rough sketches to large, museum- purchased oils of this beautiful glacial lake and its surrounding mountains and woods.  In honor of Cropsey and the special centennial anniversary of incorporation, the village of Greenwood Lake would like to celebrate and remember this world-recognized artist with a landscape oriented art show.

PLEIN AIR OPPORTUNITIES April 1-May 20:  Permission is granted for artists to set up easels and sketching materials at several locations around the lake.
