The Sage community is invited to the Rensselaer County Historical Society and Museum (RCHS) 53rd Annual Greens Show, running December 3 – 6 from noon- 5 p.m. daily.
Admission is $5 for adults and $4 for seniors and children over five, but
the admission fee will be waived with Sage ID on Friday, Dec. 4 from noon- 5 p.m.

The RCHS is located at 57 Second Street — just a half-block from the Troy campus.

This longstanding holiday tradition transforms 12 rooms of the 1827 Hart-Cluett House into “A Christmas Celebration of the Hudson’s Gifts.”
Fresh trees, greens and flowers are used to create beautiful history-inspired displays.
This year’s inspiration draws from the Hudson River, and will involve such themes as:
Rip Van Winkle, brewing beer, river transportation, the Hudson River School of Painting, area foods, and Dutch heritage.
