Join senior historians Karen Quinn and Brad Utter for an in-depth tour of the NYS Museum’s exhibition, Art of the Erie Canal. Learn how both engineering and art transformed the landscape, focusing on the city of Little Falls, N.Y. Engineering literally reshaped nature as depicted in some of the works in the show. Some artists chose to feature these marvels, while others turned their backs on them. Join us to learn about how and why.
