Programs

Raise a glass with the New York State Museum at Common Roots Albany Outpost for an evening of art, history, and conversation. Karen Quinn, Senior Historian and Curator of Art and Culture, will bring to life the fascinating story of Margery Ryerson (1886–1989), a trailblazing painter, printmaker, and writer whose seven-decade career captured the energy of New York City’s streets, settlement houses, and everyday life. From candid portraits of children to vibrant cityscapes and landscapes, Ryerson’s work tells the stories of immigrants, communities, and the people she taught and inspired. Raise a pint, dive into her world, and discover how this remarkable artist chronicled the city she called home.

This fun, interactive program is free to attend. Food and drink are not included, but are available for individual purchase at the venue.
