An astounding exhibition of the photographs of Gilbert Colbert. Colbert's work presents the relationship of human beings with animals in a breathtaking series of pictures of people meditating, dancing and swimming with elephants, leopards, falcons, sperm whales, manatees and other large mammals. In addition, there is a one-hour video of these human-animal interactions. The exhibit is housed, currently in New York City, in a specially designed "nomadic museum", first constructed in Venice and dismantled and moved with the exhibit as it travels the world.

For over 35 years, Riverkeeper and its predecessor organization have been watchdogs for the health and protection of the Hudson River.

Our mission is to safeguard the ecological integrity of the Hudson River, its tributaries and the watershed of New York City (protecting the city's drinking water supply) by tracking down and stopping polluters. Since 1983, Riverkeeper has investigated and brought to justice more than 300 environmental lawbreakers. Riverkeeper believes in the rights of every citizen to enjoy and defend our nation's water resources.

The Hudson River Sloop Clearwater, Inc. is a story of people who have given of themselves as members, as supporters and as volunteers - people who have dreams for a better world and an unwavering belief that, as individuals, we can make a difference in bringing about a cleaner, safer world for ourselves and future generations. Clearwater conducts environmental education, advocacy programs and celebrations. The nucleus of the activities is to protect the Hudson River, its tributaries and related water bodies, and to create public awareness of the estuary’s complex relationship with the coastal zone. A magnificent natural design blending the freshwater streams of the Adirondacks with the salt tides of the Atlantic, the Hudson is a prime example of an estuary’s ecosystem that, as a type, ranks second only to rain forests in biological productivity.
