Exuding a charming, quirky cool, Red Hook offers a rich maritime past, exquisite views, and an eclectic arts community.

VAMONDE

A Day in Red Hook

It's the kind of place that is so distinctly Brooklyn: a collision of creativity, ingenuity and some serious sweat equity. Founded in 2012 by contemporary artist Dustin Yellin, Pioneer Works has evolved from an unused 25,000-square-foot manufacturing warehouse to an eclectic "cultural utopia," as the founder likes to refer to it. Rehabbing the Civil War era building included adding more than 100 large windows to bring in natural light, stripping walls down to the original brick and then repainting them, and restoring an original crane to working order.

Today, Pioneer Works, a nonprofit committed to creativity and social change, stands as a bright and bustling hub of creativity. It encourages members to mix, mingle and share work across disciplines. Artists, musicians, scientists, writers--everyone's contributions are welcomed and valued here. 

Pioneer Works offers residencies, classes and exhibition opportunities galore. Along with more traditional studio spaces, there are labs where artists can utilize cutting-edge technology and technologists can explore art. Studios where musicians can experiment, create, collaborate, record, and perform. Residencies and a speaker series that explore the vast realm of science. A publishing program that produces a magazine along with books, records, pamphlets and exhibition catalogs. Basically, anything that can be created is created at Pioneer Works.

From Second Sundays (a monthly melange of open studios, live music, and speakers) to the Scientific Controversies series to Supper Club (where you can dine with members of the Pioneer Works community), there's always something to see and do here. Come enjoy the wide range of classes, lectures, and music. At Pioneer Works, the possibilities are practically endless.

Check out the Pioneer Works calendar to see what's being offered when you're in town. At the very least, be sure to visit the art galleries, which are free and open to the public every Wednesday through Sunday from noon to 6 pm.

While you're there, check out the garden out back, with its sculptures, trees, and airstream trailer. Promise: You've never seen anything like this cultural utopia before because there's never been anything like it before.

Theatrical special effects make this interactive, indoor miniature golf experience unique.

Shipwrecked Mini Golf is the brainchild of two best friends who also happen to be Broadway theater vets. After the success of their over-the-top holiday light spectacular in a Brooklyn brownstone, the pair set their sites on creating an indoor multimedia experience that's fun for the whole family. They located the perfect spot in an 11,000- square-foot indoor space in Red Hook, recycled holes from a retired mini golf course in Maryland, and went to work on developing Shipwrecked using their Broadway story, set, and lighting skills to tell an overarching pirate story to accompany your putting.

To call the result of their efforts just a miniature golf course doesn't do it justice. At each hole, tokens (which have to be purchased) give you access to story extras such as a wise-cracking skull mountain, hologram pirate, and "exploding" doors. Interactive elements are scattered throughout, including smoke, water, lights and other special effects. The holes are themed, with many tipping a hat to New York City. The final one is fashioned after a subway car and balls are returned through a fake Metracard machine.

Shipwrecked Mini Golf is like a theme park multiplied by a Broadway show with the additional fun of a miniature golf game, all rolled into one. Open varying hours (by 11 am on Fridays and weekends, 3 pm weekdays, closed Wednesdays), you'll want to put this innovative and endlessly entertaining indoor adventure on your list.

Jim Clark, the owner and curator of the Look North Inuit Art Gallery, grew up in the Massachusetts whaling town that inspired Moby Dick, a classic he took on not just once but twice in high school. After graduation, his fascination with the sea continued, and he joined the crew of a local lobster boat. By the time he was 20, he got an offer he couldn't refuse: jumping on board an Alaskan crabbing ship. He fished the Bering Sea for the next 15 years, moving his way up to first mate and acquiring a deep admiration for local Inuit culture and art along the way.

After a decade of collecting Inuit sculptures and coming to know the artisans of the Alaskan and Canadian Arctic villages he visited, Clark knew he wanted to come ashore and share his stunning finds. He opened the Look North Inuit Art Gallery in a Civil War era former shipping warehouse inhabited by other artists, designers, and creatives. Overlooking the barges of the New York Harbor, staring out at panoramic views of the Statue of Liberty, he feels very much at home in Red Hook (though he still occasionally travels back to the Bering Sea on collecting trips, during which his gallery assistants hold down the fort).

Inuit art is traditionally created from natural resources: stone, antlers, ivory, tree sap. Artists go to great lengths to gather their materials. The resulting carvings and sculptures are meticulous, rugged, and exquisitely beautiful. Mythical transformation is a common theme, as is nature and wildlife. At Look North Inuit Art Gallery, there are more than 60 Inuit artists represented, with pieces ranging from several hundred dollars to the low five figures. Visits by appointment. Call 347-721-3995 to schedule.

Before we had highways, bridges, and tunnels to bring goods and services in and out of the island of Manhattan, everything came by boat. Commuters and travelers found their way to jobs and new places by boat as well. For nearly a century until about 1960, these waterways were a living, thriving mode of transport.

Few people today realize the rich maritime past of New York. So when David Sharps, current director of the Waterfront Barge and Showboat Museum, learned that the Lehigh Valley Railroad Barge No. 79 was submerged in mud in New Jersey, he bought it for a single dollar and set about to restore its former glory. It took nearly two years to remove the 300 tons of mud from below the deck and get the barge floating again. It was eventually towed to where it is now docked in Red Hook and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places as the last remaining wood-covered barge of its kind.

Today, you can tour the Waterfront Museum and Showboat Barge on Saturdays from 1 pm until 5 pm (with additional spring and summer Thursdays from 4 pm until 8 pm). See the captain's quarters, tools, bells and gong systems that were used by workers when the barge was still in use. Watch videos of how the barge was saved. Explore rotating art exhibits.

Be sure to check the website for other events when you are visiting: There are often free and/or inexpensive performances available, such as dance and pirate shows, showboat songs, and river circuses. Come make a unique and educational day of it!

Waterfront Museum & Barge

Waterfront park with prime views and lots to do

Louis J. Valentino Jr. Park & Pier is a waterfront public park along the Buttermilk Channel, one of the country’s busiest shipping waterways in the 19th and early 20th centuries. The park is named after a local firefighter who lost his life searching for the wounded in a three-alarm blaze. This lovely vista honors the memory of his service to the people of Brooklyn.

Louis J. Valentino Jr. Park & Pier offers one of the best vantage points for viewing the Statue of Liberty, as well as Governor’s Island, Staten Island, the New York Harbor and the Manhattan skyline. You’ll also find some cool street art here, including oversized blocks welcoming visitors to Red Hook. On summer days, Red Hook Boaters offers free kayak rentals on a first come, first served basis, and on summer nights the park is home to Red Hook Flicks, a free outdoor movie series.     

The Louis J. Valentino Jr. Park & Pier is open daily from 6 am until 1 am. Come here to get up close and personal with Lady Liberty, paddle the day away, or relax with a family-friendly flick. A great day of free entertainment awaits!

Explore some of the locations of the Chicago blues scene of the 1960s with this VAMONDE adventure, based on the Chicago History Museum exhibition, "AMPLIFIED: Chicago Blues."

Chicago History Museum

Explore some of the locations of the Chicago blues scene of the 1960s with this VAMONDE adventure, based on the Chicago History Museum exhibition, "AMPLIFIED: Chicago Blues." Southern black migrants brought the blues to Chicago, where the music helped them forge connections and transform an unfamiliar, often inhospitable city into a new home. The music was also transformed—electrified and amplified to compete with urban noise. The photography of Raeburn Flerlage captures the streets, clubs, homes, and studios where a community of musicians defined the Chicago blues sound.

AMPLIFIED: Chicago Blues

From a 20th century resurgence that rivaled the Harlem Renaissance, to spectacular displays of Victorian Era architecture, this South Side neighborhood is responsible for tremendous cultural and social advances that are not to be missed.

As part of the Beyond the Loop video series, The Second City and Goose Island Beer Company have teamed up with Choose Chicago to explore the local hotspots in Chicago’s Bronzeville neighborhood. Discover why Bronzeville is more than just an artsy pocket on the South Side.

Join Julia Bachrach, former Chicago Park District historian, on a journey through Humboldt Park to learn more about the role the 150-year-old park served as key experimental grounds for Jens Jensen's Prairie style of landscape architecture.

Julia Bachrach

Established 150 years ago, Humboldt Park can be thought of as a living landmark with layers of history that reflect contributions by important landscape designers, architects, and artists. The most noteworthy, Danish immigrant Jens Jensen (1860 – 1951), revered the indigenous scenery of the Midwest and created the Prairie style of landscape architecture. Humboldt Park provided important grounds for his process of experimentation. Jensen went on to design estates for prominent businessmen such as Julius Rosenwald, Harold Florsheim, and Henry Ford. Join Julia Bachrach, former Chicago Park District historian and author of "The City in a Garden: A History of Chicago’s Parks," on a journey to learn more about how Humboldt Park served as Jens Jensen’s Experimental Grounds.

Tucked away in the West Ridge community is a treasured place— Indian Boundary Park.  The 13-acre park was developed in two major phases—the first in 1916 and the second in the early 1920s. Plans for both phases were created by Richard Gloede, a landscape gardener and horticulturalist from Evanston.  Unlike other parks of the era that accommodated numerous athletic activities, Gloede and the Park Board sought to create a beautiful landscape for rest and relaxation.  The park has always had a seamless relationship with the adjacent neighborhood, and despite various changes over the years, Indian Boundary Park has always retained its special character.
