Rebooting Rockwell's America: News, Art and Community

A PUBLIC SYMPOSIUM / September 11-13, 2009 / Stockbridge, Massachusetts

TRAVEL AND ACCOMODATIONS

There are extensive options for travel to the Berkshires. The Albany (N.Y.) International Airport is less than an hour's drive from Stockbridge, Mass., and is served by all major airlines, as is Bradley International Airport, just north of Hartford, Conn., and about 70 minutes from Stockbridge. The Stewart Newburg (N.Y.) International Airport is about 90 minutes from Stockbridge.

The Hudson Line of the Metro North commuter railroad terminates at Wassaic, N.Y., about an hour's drive south of Stockbridge and Pittsfield, Mass., 10 miles north of Stockbridge, has daily Amtrak service from Albany, N.Y., and Boston.

Because the Berkshires is the location of Tanglewood, the summer home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, and numerous other cultural institutions (Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival, Shakespeare & Co., the Clark Art Institute, the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art), there are an array of quality hotels within a 15-30-minute drive of Stockbridge. The primary symposium lodging venue will be Stockbridge's historic Red Lion Inn.
