Blauweiss Media has been working hard on a new series of online multimedia presentations called PhotoTalks. PhotoTalks are engaging multimedia presentations on a variety of topics related to Kingston, Woodstock, Hudson Valley, Ulster County, and Black cultural history.
Based on their upcoming book The Story of Historic Kingston: A Journey Through the Hudson Valley and its Connections with New York City, featuring over 800 photographs, this PhotoTalk covers a thriving era in Kingston and Hudson Valley history and their intricate relationship with New York City's development.
