As residents of New York, we already know more than most that our state’s Hudson Valley region is home to all sorts of jaw-dropping attractions. With more and more attractions and businesses within this particular area of our state beginning to open up for the summer, you may already find your schedule filling up as much as it possibly can. If you’re ready to make sure your calendar is marked full of memorable evenings, then see how you won’t want to miss out on Friday Night Picnics at Opus 40 this summer!
The latest reason you’ll want to find yourself in Saugerties, Opus 40 is one of New York State’s most unique sculpture parks and its history dates all the way back to 1938.

Back in 1938, a man by the name of Harvey Fite purchased the land we now know as Opus 40, using only hand tools to create this incredible work of art that was built over the course of more than 35 years.

Teaming up with The Dutch Ale House to bring visitors of the sculpture park something truly special, those who pre-order their Friday Night Picnic by noon will be able to come to the park and have the perfect picnic brought right to them.

As you pick your spot and decide where to settle down at Opus 40, you’ll get to feast on lobster rolls, lemon bars, and chilled wine in the park.

Don’t worry! If you somehow can’t make it to one of the many upcoming Friday Night Picnics that are being hosted this summer, there’s another option available to you.

Also teaming up with the Stockade Tavern in Kingston, Opus 40 will also be hosting Stockade Saturdays now through September 5 - where visitors are able to bring their own picnic essentials and then enjoy a made-to-order cocktails from a master mixologist. How tasty does that sound?

If either of these weekend events sound intriguing to you, then you’ll want to reserve your tickets and pre-order reservations for Opus 40 sooner than later.
