We put the ART in Wineglass MARaThon…

…Ok, we’ll admit that’s kind of a stretch. But here’s 3 ways to make The Rockwell part of your Wineglass Experience!

In 2018, runners and their families will have three awesome opportunities to experience The Rockwell. Happy training, and we’ll see you in September!

1. Don’t overthink it – JUST VISIT!

   Open daily, 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. |  Kids/teens FREE

   Explore Corning like a local – The Rockwell offers our local resident rate (50% Off) for all Wineglass runners and their guests. 

   The Rockwell Museum, now a Smithsonian Affiliate, is home to a significant collection of art, and a place where high-quality education and entertainment intersect. If you can’t make it to one of the events listed below, you still can’t leave Corning without visiting The Rockwell Museum.

2.  Friday, September 28 | Urban Arts Crawl | 5 – 8 p.m. 
   
   

   Ribbon Cutting: 5:30 p.m.
   Reception: 6 – 8 p.m.
   Post-Crawl Meetup: The Radisson, 8 p.m.

   In September, our art partners in Downtown Corning kick off the new season of Urban Arts Crawl – an art-centric celebration of the unique and diverse art scene in our humble little town.  As a self-guided final Friday of each month , The Crawl includes stops at internationally acclaimed museums and independent galleries alike. Artist talks and demonstrations, modern dance performances, live music and more make The Crawl a truly unique experience. Then, join us at The Radisson bar and lounge for the Post-Crawl Meetup starting at 8 p.m.

   This month, The Rockwell celebrates the ribbon cutting of the 10th Anniversary Alley Project! Join us in celebrating this epic and inspiring public art unveiling.

3.  Sunday, October 2 | Post-Race Craft Beverage Tasting | Noon – 3 p.m.

    You came, you ran, you conquered – now unwind with some delicious tastes of wine and other craft beverages that the region has to offer. Nothing pairs with a nice stroll through a fine art museum like sipping on a wide sampling of regional wines, beers, and spirits. You’re sure to find something for every taste and preference. 

   Hors d’oeuvres and tastings are free to runners and their guests! Full bottles will be available for purchase directly from the tasting staff. If you’re not able to take some time to hit the tasting trails this weekend, The Rockwell Museum has you covered. Come as you are for this casual tasting event.
