About Camp Arden:
Built in the 1880s by Herbert Carpenter, son of famed artist Francis Bicknell Carpenter, Camp Arden offers a charming retreat into the rustic elegance of a bygone era. Guests will stay in the East Lake Cabin, an English-style cabin, perfectly situated to take full advantage of all the Adirondacks have to offer.
Relax on the spacious, screened-in porch, paddle across Carpenter Pond in a provided canoe, or cozy up to an outdoor fire. Inner tubing, catch-and-release native Brook Trout, and 80 acres of property to explore around the camp. High speed internet is available via SpaceX Starlink. Camp Arden is the perfect Adirondack retreat!
Located in the Loon Lake region. Camp Arden is a 20-minute drive to Saranac Lake, and a 35 minute drive to Lake Placid (host to the 1932 and 1980 Olympic Games.)
Stop into the Bryan Gallery in Jeffersonville on Wednesday, June 18, from 5:00 – 6:30pm for our monthly “Sketch & Sip” event.
The vibe is low-key. Props, objects and tables will be available so that participants may set up their own unique still life. Whatever catches the eye of the participant can be used as a prompt – you can even sketch a friend or something in our gallery! Attendees are encouraged to bring their own drawing tools, beverages of choice, and even headphones, if chilling out with tunes inspires your work.
No critique, and no instruction – your imagination is all you need in a relaxed, creative environment in which to unwind with your favorite drawing tools and paper.
Sketch & Sip at the Bryan Gallery is open to
everyone.
Suggested donation: $10.00

New York Times best selling auther Tobin Anderson considers the politices of beautiful scenery and hidden national longings behind our sense of landscape in this lecture/discussion. As the state prepares to review Act 250 and it's implications, Anderson poses several questions: What do we value about Landscape in the first place? Why are the inhospitable Green Mountains beautiful? And, what is actually attractive about a ruined barn? Anderson addresses attitudes toward landscape in general, traditional New England landscape painting and contemporary Vermont artists to discuss how different societies have found the sublime in their surroundings - and what that may mean for our future. A Q & A will follow the discussion.
Anderson's satirical science fiction novel, Landscape with Invisible Hand, has been made into a movie starring Tiffany Haddish and Asante Blackk.
This event is free and open to the public.
A Vermont Humanities Council program, supported in part by the National Endowment for the Humanities.

The Authentic Voices Speaker Series - Small Town Sessions isn’t your typical lecture or conference. It’s an event that is part storytelling, part personal growth and part community connection. Think TED Talks ... but if TED removed its blazer, kicked off its shoes, poured a cup of tea and said: “Okay, so how are you really doing?”
Listen to 4 powerful, community speakers who will share varied stories, not necessarily buttoned up and polished. They’ll cover everything from rewiring beliefs, overcoming adversity, embracing new strengths and finding magic in unexpected places. You'll hear from:
Jess Kiely Vogelpohl
Dr. Elizabeth Davidson
Annie O'Shaughnessy
Ally Berthiaume
This event is for anyone ready to:
→ Break free from the stories holding them back
→ Find community with like-minded souls
→ Be inspired by courage, vulnerability, and heart
→ Walk away with practical tools & insights to start living authentically aligned lives
But Wait...There’s More!
After the speakers leave the stage — the night continues! Guests are invited to stay for a Vendor Market & Reception featuring local small businesses, wellness products, holistic services, and beautifully curated goodies. Sip on craft cocktails, mocktails, and cozy beverages while you mingle, shop, and connect in the Vendor Market. Because healing happens in community. Transformation happens in connection. And magic happens when people feel seen, heard, and valued for exactly who they are!
