Less than three years after Kingston’s Midtown Arts District initiative was launched in October 2014, the City’s Broadway corridor is pulsing with new energy.

Thursday, August 3: The composer prepares for Kingston’s Celebration of the Arts concert, which will take place in a large tent called the Collective, on the site formerly occupied by the Kings Inn motel.

A private collector has made an offer on Louis Kahn’s Point Counterpoint II, but the owner turned him down, wanting to keep the boat in the public domain, where it can continue its mission of exposing youth in cities and towns along the nation’s navigable waterways to classical music. An upcoming concert in Kingston is the perfect vehicle showcasing Kingston’s commitment to do just that.
