For the first time in 3 years, the Plattsburgh State Art Museum has fully reopened to the public for the summer. The Burke Gallery on campus is hosting a show by painter Joe Remillard, who grew up in the North Country. Many of his oil paintings are rooted in the Adirondacks, including his family’s farm in Peru, New York. Remillard credits Plattsburgh State Art Museum Director Tonya Cribb with rescheduling his show to run this summer, after it was put on hold during the COVID-19 pandemic. We talk with Tonya Cribb this week about the Plattsburgh State Art Museum reopening for the summer, an upcoming show this fall featuring the works of famed Adirondack painter Rockwell Kent, plus some symposiums held this spring that focused on Kent and his travels to Greenland nearly a century ago.
