Program & Workshop Events

This August, the MTHS Train Station will feature an exhibit honoring Nathan Dolinsky (1890–1980), a prolific artist, educator, and founder of Camp Schoharie whose work spanned portraits, landscapes, and still-lifes. The exhibit, curated by Carol Slutzky-Tenerowicz, includes original pieces, prints, and a diorama of his beloved “Dream Garden,” open weekends from 10–3.

Join us at Meadowbrook Farm in Leeds, NY for an educational evening focused on cut flowers, with expert talks, a farm tour, and a food truck. Perfect for growers of all levels, this field day covers soil health, planting, pests, and more at a 120-acre flower and agritourism farm—home to sunflowers, festivals, and award-winning events.

Explore how to make dyes using natural materials gathered from the gardens and landscape of the historic site.

Experience the calming practice of Forest Bathing with Beth Lewis Rennig on a 90-minute guided walk through the Mountain Top Historical Society grounds. Inspired by the Japanese tradition of shinrin-yoku, this gentle, sensory-based experience helps reduce stress and enhance well-being. Suitable for all ages; held rain or shine.
