The Hudson Valley Gateway Chamber of Commerce presents the Hudson Valley Exposition, a community celebration showcasing the region’s businesses, culture, activities, and entertainment. Held at Riverfront Green Park in Peekskill, New York, the 2017 event brought local restaurants, artisans, wellness providers, community organizations, and technology and energy exhibitors together for a day of discovery and connection.

Visitors could sample regional food, craft beer, and wine; browse arts and crafts made in the Hudson Valley; and learn about sustainable energy, solar power, green home construction, and energy efficiency. The program also featured a children’s activity zone with art, science experiments, live animals, and a game truck, along with wellness demonstrations, kayaking, and river cruises. Live music throughout the afternoon and evening, followed by a fireworks show, rounded out the festivities. Supported by local businesses and organizations, the exposition offered residents and visitors an engaging introduction to the people, ideas, and experiences that make the Hudson Valley distinctive.
