The Exposition aims to promote the benefits and bounty of living, working and playing in the Hudson Valley with a focus on art, music, trendy businesses, holistic/wellness, and energy and technology along with the best of the Hudson Valley's food, craft beer and wines.

Kids enjoyed an interactive experience in the Kidz Zone where they made art, challenged their knowledge of science through experiments, groom and fed therapeutic horses, pet llamas, participated in living history vignettes, worked alongside colonial crafters, saw sawmill demonstrations and took a ride on a mechanical lion.
