Throughout the month of May, we are welcoming visitors to our new temporary exhibition, Luther Forest: A Family, A Woodland, A Legacy, with guided tours led by our director and exhibition curator, Anne Hollmuller. On May 16, May 23, and May 30, join Anne on a small group tour of our new temporary exhibition, where she will discuss the history and evolutions of Luther Forest, our Luther-Mackay family archive, and the curatorial process. Members $0, Non-Members $5.At the turn of the twentieth century, Thomas Clements Luther, the owner of a popular resort hotel on Saratoga Lake, began building the forest that would bear his name. Ultimately encompassing 7,000 acres in Malta and Stillwater, Luther Forest was the largest private reforestation project in New York. Despite the challenges of growing development and government intervention, five generations of the Luther-Mackay family have worked to cultivate and conserve Luther Forest, leaving a treasured legacy for future residents of Saratoga County.
This exhibition forms a part of our Spotlight on Malta History series, which was generously supported by a grant from the GlobalFoundries/Town of Malta Foundation. This exhibition was curated by Dr. A.L. Hollmuller, and installed in partnership with Field Horne and Marianne Bez.
