Glitter Thicket Owner Larisa Schuckle

Glitter Thicket owner and Nyack native Larisa Schuckle is really living her truth. Before starting her business, she earned a degree in Animal Studies, worked at several farm sanctuaries, and was a humane educator – traveling to schools to teach students about the impact of food choices on individual health, animals, and the environment. Taken altogether, she was perfectly positioned to be the person to bring a vegan bakery to Nyack’s downtown.

 

“I wanted to offer people in the community affordable, healthy foods that have a lower environmental footprint and also help protect animals,” Larisa says. “Plant-based eating for me has been really delicious and joyful and I wanted to share that. I also wanted to create a space where local artists could share their work and be celebrated.”

 

In addition to a simple menu of vegan sandwiches, baked, goods and high tea, Larisa appeals to Nyack’s artistic vibe and strong sense of community by featuring an ever-changing collection of art from local makers, jewelry, gifts, and fairy houses. Customers are able to be surrounded by beauty while eating delicious food. In addition, the shop creates custom birthday and wedding cakes and hosts private fairy tea parties and other celebratory events upon request.

 

When asked “Why Nyack?” for her business, it is no surprise that creativity was at the forefront of Larisa’s reason.

 

“It is truly special how many different people from the community have been willing to showcase their work here, from jewelry, mustard, hat and perfume makers, to sculptors, authors, photographers, painters and potters,” Larisa states. “There are lots of creations to look at when you come in. There have also been many people who have been willing to share their skills and passions in the space and organize things like tarot nights, poetry clubs, discussion groups and open mic nights!”

 

Looking forward, Larisa hopes to continue hosting specialty events and being a gathering place for people to express themselves and celebrate. She tries to do a party for most nature-based holidays and select artistic events. She is hosting a closing reception for an artist on May 18th, a welcome party for a new artist on May 24th, and a Garden Tea Party at the First Reformed Church of Nyack on June 2nd. You can learn more about the aforementioned events and much more by following Glitter Thicket on social media @glitterthickett (Instagram) or visiting their website.

Adrienne Cromartie-Wolf

For My Father’s House Southern Cuisine owner Adrienne Cromartie Wolf, her restaurant is so much more than just that – it symbolizes a dream come true for both herself and her late father, Franklin Cromartie. Growing up, Adrienne worked alongside her dad in his catering business where he taught her everything that she knows. Unfortunately, Franklin succumbed to cancer before he could open his own business, but he passed the torch along to Adrienne to achieve their goal.

 

Adrienne has been an educator in the city for many years and prior to My Father’s House restaurant she had her own catering business which she started in 2005 – working church and other related events. After her father passed, her late mother, Cynthia, and nana, Lillie, encouraged her along her journey towards restaurant ownership and My Father’s House restaurant opened in 2021.

 

The restaurant offers classic southern soul food with a twist to a diverse group of patrons with soulfully vegetarian and vegan options influenced by Adrienne’s upbringing as a Seventh Day Adventist. Delicious food aside, Adrienne prides herself on creating a warm atmosphere for all customers.

“We work very hard to impart warmth and comfort reminiscent of family reunions growing up,” Adrienne says. “When you walk through our door, you are reunited with family members. We are dedicated to providing patrons with a memorable experience complete with delicious food, outstanding service, and even live Gospel and Jazz music on the weekends.”

 

So why Nyack? For Adrienne, the answer is obvious.

 

“Nyack has a rich history of African-American trailblazers and we thought this was an ideal community for us to carry on some of those traditions,” Adrienne stated. “We appreciated the diversity of the Nyack community and believed that it would enable us to offer a unique culinary experience and space that people from all different backgrounds can explore and enjoy.”

 

Looking forward, Adrienne plans to have MFHSC food trucks on the road. She is also looking forward to the annual Mother’s Day and Father’s Day events set to include a special menu and themed live music.

Two Rivers Acupuncture & Wellness owner Dr. Lauren Dulberg has always had a passion for the healing arts. At the University of Arizona-Tuscson, she majored in Medical Anthropology & Ethnobotany, which was where her interest initially sparked in Traditional Chinese Medicine.

 

“Prior to my acupuncture career, I was a yoga teacher and real estate agent living in Brooklyn,” Dulberg says. “I always had an interest in Chinese medicine but it took me a handful of years to get some work, life, and travel experience before taking the plunge for school.”

 

So, after a brief stint in India, learning about Yoga, Ayurveda Medicine, and Reiki, Dulberg returned to the states in 2005, earned her Masters of Chinese Medicine, her License of Acupuncture, and then went on to complete her Doctorate in Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine, becoming the first person to hold this level degree in Rockland County. She went on to start her first practice in Buenos Aires, Argentina, which was where she lived for 4 years before deciding that it was time to come back to New York.

“I grew up in Rockland and had been away for 20 years,” Dulberg states. “But despite my time on the West Coast, Argentina, and Brooklyn, I always remembered Nyack as being a place I loved coming to. It just felt natural to raise my kids here and also be part of such an amazing and supportive community.”

 

Recently voted Hudson Valley Magazine‘s “Best of the Hudson Valley” for Acupuncture, Two Rivers is one of the only true Chinese medicine clinics in the county – a bragging right the practice has earned due to the certifications of its practitioners. Whereas most acupuncturists in New York, only have a License of Acupuncture (the minimum requirement to practice), Dr. Dulberg and her partner, Dr. Mijung Park, both have Masters and Doctorates degrees in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine and are Board Certified in Chinese Herbalism. For patients, this means that the doctors are qualified to treat complex internal medicine issues via Acupuncture, Herbal Medicine, and diet. Dulberg specializes in Women’s Health, Mental Health, and Pediatrics, while Dr. Park specializes in Internal Medicine and Orthopedics.

Two Rivers treats anyone from 2 weeks old onward, through all phases of life. They also accept insurance and HSA cards.

 

“We want to help our patients with preventative medicine,” Dulberg says. “Acupuncture has been proven to keep you healthy, it regenerates cells and boosts the immune system while creating microcirculation of ‘qi and blood.’ It is a great medicine whether you have something going on or not.”

 

Looking forward, Dulberg says her 5-year plan includes adding new practitioners and locations in Westchester and maybe Bergen counties along with hosting new workshops in their current 1500 square foot space.

…if you weren’t already!

 

Good things come in small packages, so the saying goes…but good things also come in fall packages! So, if you want a small, fall package, look no further than Nyack. Our village packs over a hundred businesses and a rich array of recreational, entertainment and cultural opportunities into just over one walkable square mile. For autumn in particular, Nyack has a full calendar of events and family-friendly activities to help you celebrate the season to the fullest.

 

“Nyack is the perfect place to enjoy the Hudson Valley’s autumn glow,” said Thomas Schneck, President of the Visit Nyack Board. “We encourage everyone to combine Nyack events with our special blend of memorable experiences. Nyack offers it all – in a beautiful, memorable riverside community.”

 

Whether you are a fall enthusiast or go into hibernation mode as soon as the temperatures begin to drop, Nyack has a little something for everyone. Read more below for a sampling of our autumnal offerings!

 

Phoenix Festival: Live Arts in Nyack

In 2022, Nyack joined the roster of world-class arts events with  Phoenix Festival: Live Arts in Nyack, an annual celebration of classical theater, music, local culture, and the creative spirit of community. Over its five inaugural weekends in September and October 2022, the Festival presented both live and outdoor performances against the majestic vistas of the Hudson River and the lively, jazzy riverside village of Nyack. In 2023, the critically-acclaimed Festival expanded its programming to include four indoor and outdoor productions, partnerships with Children’s Shakespeare Company and Emotions Physical Theatre, and special events all over downtown Nyack. The Festival also offers a spotlight for local Nyack nonprofits, along with opportunities for students and volunteers to get up-close and hands-on with live performance. Stay tuned for more information on Phoenix Festival 2024!

 

The Festival is hosted and produced by the Phoenix Theatre Ensemble, an internationally recognized leader in creative contemporary theater and winner of multiple prestigious awards for excellence in theater arts. Founded in New York City in 2004, the Ensemble is proud to make Rockland County its second artistic home. PTE Artistic Director Elise Stone and PTE Executive Director Craig Smith serve as the Festival’s leadership, engaging local, county and New York State institutions, educational organizations, businesses and non-profits in support of the Festival.

 

 

Nyack’s Famous Street Fairs

Anyone who knows Nyack knows the street fairs – five each year in spring, summer, and fall – a Nyack tradition for well over three decades. Maybe even the most seasoned veterans of the village have lost track of the years, but the basic premise has remained the same: Crafts, jewelry, food, live music, clothing, gifts, art, antiques, specialty items — offered by hundreds of vendors and local merchants. Thousands of people come. Many come back – and stay.

 

 

Nyack Halloween Parade

Every year, the Village of Nyack and the Chamber of Commerce proudly present the most hair-raising Halloween celebration this side of the Hudson — ranked by Travel Channel as one of the Top 10 Halloween parades nationwide. Dancing ghouls, marching bands, wild costumes, fantastic floats, live entertainment, and more. Great prizes for the best floats and costumes.

Rockland Fashion Week

Produced by Nyack’s Hope Wade Designs, Rockland Fashion Week (RFW) tfocuses on Rockland as a growing hub for fashion design and manufacture, and includes local pop-up shops, as well as educational sessions on the “business of fashion” at local middle and high schools around the county. A mini fashion show (including one for dogs) leads up to the main event. RFW culminates in a gala runway event at Palisades Center in West Nyack featuring local fashion designers.

 

Nyack’s Weekly Farmers Market: Thursdays,  8am-2pm

Families love the Farmers Market, every Thursday year-round featuring live music, fresh goods from local farms and artisans, and plenty of kid-friendly activities.

 

 

 

 


 

In addition to the aforementioned events, Nyack makes it easy to combine events with shopping, dining, or recreation in a day trip or whatever a weekend itinerary might require. One draw for shoppers who like to marry a good deal with a good meal is the tempting array of casual eateries and fine dining establishments that put Nyack on the map as a haven for food enthusiasts.

 

“Nyack is a top destination for dining in the Hudson Valley,” said Mark Davidoff, Visit Nyack Board member, and director, Rockland Community College Culinary Arts and Hospitality Center. “Our village is a hub for both culinary arts education, and for the final product – the best food on the plate for the discerning diner.”

 

Local hotels offer package stays with discounts and specials at restaurants, shops and personal service establishments.  The river is Nyack’s jewel in the crown – majestic Hudson vistas from the shore, hikes at the river’s edge or Hook Mountain ridge, or fun on the river itself – sailing, kayaking and water sports as summer stretches into fall.

 

Here’s a quick drone’s-eye view:

Dining and food: Nyack offers 50+ restaurant options from pubs to world-class gourmet menus for those who like choice; themed food tours for those who like to explore; award-winning cooking classes at the Culinary Arts Institute for those who like to make their own; and a year-round Farmers Market every Thursday for those who want to connect with food, farms, friends and fun.

 

Shopping: Nyack is a hub for the unique, one-of-a kind, hard-to-find-anywhere-else purchase. Also, a place for buyers who are interested in sustainably sourced goods, original fashion, handmade items (which customers may help create) and, overall, a personal shopping experience – often delivered with a sense of humor, always with plenty of time to browse, discuss and decide.

 

Entertainment and the arts: Nyack’s bustling night-and-day life offers theater and music of all genres, classic plays, musicals, jazz, rock, blues, drumming, karaoke, open mic nights, salsa music and dancing, classical concerts and a cluster a music-related businesses offering music lessons, instruments, and recording capabilities. Nyack is also home to a thriving art community, hosting contemporary art shows, workshops, curated film screenings, poetry reading, art classes and camps for kids, pop-up art events and more.

 

Biking Nyack Beach State Park (Photo Credit: Caroline Scimone)

Recreation: Opportunities for hiking, biking, and river sports in Nyack are among the best in the Hudson Valley. Access to the Governor Mario M. Cuomo bridge path is within minutes of the village — with sweeping views of the river to the north and south. For those who want to get their toes wet, launch your kayak from Nyack Beach State Park or board sailing charters from Nyack marina. Hiking-wise, you can “find your long path” through guided hikes organized by Long Path Outfitters in collaboration with West Mountain Guide Co. and take in stunning river views and unlimited leaf-peeping opportunities. For those who want to ‘catch some air,’ there’s always the option for a quick spin at the riverside skateboarding park, recognized by ‘skaters’ as one of the best in the region.

 

Culture and history: Home to civil rights leaders, artists, writers, Nobel Prize winners, movie stars, and many far-from-ordinary hard-working people, Nyack has a deep multicultural history with fascinating stories to tell. Those stories are well told by the Historical Society, Nyack Library, Hopper House Museum and other organizations, offering tours, exhibitions and special programs – all accessible in town, online, or via phone.

 

Relaxation and personal services: With all the activity going on in Nyack, it’s still possible to relax in one of the village’s top-flight salons, spas or barber shops offering premium personal care services. See visitnyack.org for information.

 

Enjoy life. Enjoy Nyack.

For those seeking a healthy dose of feel-good outdoor fun, Nyack is just the place.

 

Located 24 miles north of New York City on the banks of the Hudson in beautiful Rockland County, Nyack offers great opportunities to share time and enjoy life with family and friends – hundreds of experiences and events all season long that make for great day trips, weekend get-aways and longer stays.

 

“Rockland is the gateway to the Hudson Valley,” said Lucy Redzeposki, Rockland’s Director of Economic Development and Tourism. “The county is rich in history, culture and natural beauty, with much to offer visitors from local communities and from around the world. Nyack is a great introduction.”

 

Views of the river – from nearly every angle – are spectacular. It’s also easy to experience the river itself. Boat charters and water sports launch from Nyack’s marina at the east end of Main Street.

A visit to Nyack would be incomplete without a meal in one of Nyack’s top-flight restaurants, casual eateries or cozy pubs, paired with shopping in the village’s one-of-a-kind boutiques. For those interested in the arts, a visit to the Edward Hopper House Museum and Study Center or a show at the Elmwood Playhouse are within steps of the village center.

“Nyack is a treasure trove packed into an area of just over one walkable square mile,” added Nyack Mayor Don Hammond. “Your list of activities in and around Nyack might include hiking Hook Mountain, walking or biking across the Governor Mario Cuomo Bridge, or a leisurely riverside stroll in Nyack Beach State Park on an easy, level path right at the edge of the Hudson.”

 

For visitors looking for evening entertainment, live music and comedy shows abound in the center of town while Nyack’s hotels offer comfortable accommodations for weekday and weekend overnight stays.

Holiday Lights 2015 Flyer FinalSpecial shopping events include Small Business Saturday on November 28, and Nyack’s 2nd annual Indoor Street Fair on November 29. The annual tree lighting celebration, Holiday Lights of Nyack, takes place on December 5.

The artists of the Nyack Art Collective have made the streets come alive with window installations in select shops, including Sanctuary (South Broadway) and Riverwaves (North Broadway).
