  • Olana Announces New Interpretative and Education Staff
    For Immediate Release September 22, 2014 Media Contact/Interviews: Amy Hufnagel Director of Education (518) 828-1872 x 105 Image: Paul Banks and Amy Hufnagel join Olana’s team; photo credit: Melanie Hasbrook Olana Announces New Interpretative and Education Staff Hudson, NY – The Olana State Historic Site and The Olana Partnership are pleased to announce the hire of two new staff people: Paul Banks, the new Interpretive Program Assistant for the NY State Parks Department, and Amy Hufnagel, the new Director of Education at The Olana Partnership. They both joined the project in June and will work separately, but also in partnership, to enhance the educational and interpretive opportunities at Olana. Hufnagel will be designing and implementing k-12 field trip programs, planning public programs, working with curators and development staff. Banks will focus on delivering tours to the public, managing the docent staff, and assisting Kimberly Flook, Olana’s Site Manager, with all aspects of managing Olana. Together they will develop new tours and new outreach to expand Olana’s audiences. Banks and Hufnagel are thrilled at the opportunities for engaging the public in meaningful ways here at Olana. Banks remembers the first time he saw a Frederic Church masterpiece. The Icebergs at the Dallas Museum of Art not only stopped him in his tracks, it gave him a whole new appreciation for painting. Since then, his appreciation for art has only grown – as well as his career in communication and interpretation. As an Interpretive Park Ranger with the National Park Service (NPS) he was able to inspire people by telling the stories of the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island.

  • July 8 Grants Press Release
    CITY PARKS FOUNDATION ANNOUNCES 109 GRANTS THROUGH NYC GREEN RELIEF & RECOVERY FUND AND GREEN / ARTS LIVE NYC GRANT APPLICATION NOW OPEN FOR PARK VOLUNTEER GROUPS Funding Awarded For Maintenance and Stewardship of Parks by Nonprofit Organizations and For Free Live Performances in Parks, Plazas, and Gardens Across NYC July 8, 2021 - NEW YORK, NY - City Parks Foundation announced today the selection of 109 grants through two competitive funding opportunities - the NYC Green Relief & Recovery Fund and GREEN / ARTS LIVE NYC. More than ever before, New Yorkers have come to rely on parks and open spaces, the most fundamentally democratic and accessible of public resources. Parks are critical to our city’s recovery and reopening – offering fresh air, recreation, and creativity - and a crucial part of New York’s equitable economic recovery and environmental resilience. These grant programs will help to support artists in hosting free, public performances and programs in parks, plazas, and gardens across NYC, along with the nonprofit organizations that help maintain many of our city’s open spaces. Both grant programs are administered by City Parks Foundation. The NYC Green Relief & Recovery Fund will award nearly $2M via 64 grants to NYC-based small and medium-sized nonprofit organizations. Grants will help to support basic maintenance and operations within heavily-used parks and open spaces during a busy summer and fall with the city’s reopening. Notable projects supported by this fund include the Harlem Youth Gardener Program founded during summer 2020 through a collaboration between Friends of Morningside Park Inc., Friends of St. Nicholas Park, Marcus Garvey Park Alliance, & Jackie Robinson Park Conservancy to engage neighborhood youth ages 14-19 in paid horticulture along with the Bronx River Alliance’s EELS Youth Internship Program and Volunteer Program to invite thousands of Bronxites to participate in stewardship of the parks lining the river banks.

    AMERICAN SOCIETY OF American Society of Landscape Architects LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTS Medal of Excellence Nominations NEW YORK 205 E 42nd St, 14th floor c/o Carolyn Mitchell New York, NY 10017 636 Eye Street, NW 212.269.2984 Washington, DC 20001-3736 www.aslany.org Re: Nomination of Central Park Conservancy for Landscape Architects Medal of Excellence Dear Colleagues: I am thrilled to write this nomination of the Central Park Conservancy for the Landscape Architects Medal of Excellence. The Central Park Conservancy (CPC) is a leader in park management dedicated to the preserving the legacy of urban parks and laying the foundations for future generations to benefit from these public landscapes. Central Park is a masterpiece of landscape architecture created to provide a scenic retreat from urban life for the enjoyment of all. Located in the heart of Manhattan, Central Park is the nation’s first major urban public space, attracting millions of visitors, both local and tourists alike. Covering 843 acres of land, this magnificent park was designated as a National Historic Landmark in 1963 and as a New York City Scenic Landmark in 1974. As the organization entrusted with the responsibility of caring for New York’s most important public space, the Central Park Conservancy is founded on the belief that citizen leadership and private philanthropy are key to ensuring that the Park and its essential purpose endure. Conceived during the mid-19th century as a recreational space for residents who were overworked and living in cramped quarters, Central Park is just as revered today as a peaceful retreat from the day-to-day stresses of urban life — a place where millions of New Yorkers and visitors from around the world come to experience the scenic beauty of one of America’s greatest works of art.
