The Heermance Farmhouse is a historic structure in the town of Red Hook, New York, United States. It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980, and is an example of an intact 18th-century Dutch stone farmhouse in the Hudson Valley region of the state. It is one of only about six standing stone houses in the town, and possibly its oldest building. The farmhouse is noted for its distinct decorative features and lack of modern alterations.
The building is situated on the north side of West Kerley Corners Road, west of U.S. Route 9. The date of construction is unclear, but is likely between 1725 and 1750. The structure was initially built as a simple two-room residence, but ca. 1772, it was expanded and renovated to include its unusual features. After 1800, the house received few major changes. The Heermance Farmhouse had several owners over the years, but has always been part of a working farm. A restoration was performed during the 1970s, with care to preserve the original character of the home.

The Richard B. Fisher Center for the Performing Arts at Bard College is a performance hall located in the Hudson Valley hamlet of Annandale-on-Hudson, New York. The center provides audiences with performances and programs in orchestral, chamber, and jazz music, and in theater, dance, and opera. Designed by architect Frank Gehry, the 110,000-square-foot center houses two theaters, four rehearsal studios for dance, theater, and music, and professional support facilities. The building's heat and air-conditing systems are entirely powered by geothermal sources, enabling the Fisher Center to be fossil fuel free during standard operations. The total cost of the project reached $62 million and took three years to complete, opening in April 2003. The New Yorker calls it "[possibly] the best small concert hall in the United States."
The Sosnoff Theater, an intimate, 900-seat theater with an orchestra, parterre, and two balcony sections, features an orchestra pit for opera and acoustics designed by Yasuhisa Toyota, including an acoustic shell that turns the theater into a concert hall for performances of chamber and symphonic music.
The smaller of the two theaters is the flexible 200-seat LUMA Theater, which houses Bard's Theater and Dance Programs during the academic year.
The Fisher Center is also the home of the Bard Music Festival, hosting companies from around the world during Bard SummerScape, a festival of opera, theater, and dance. The Performing Arts Center is primarily devoted to teaching and college events during the academic year and used as a public performing-arts facility and venue for the college's graduate programs in the arts during the summer months.
