Historic Sugar Loaf Village is nestled in scenic Warwick Valley, only 60 miles from New
York City, and is an interesting mix of practicing artisans,
eclectic shops and galleries. Established in the early 1700's, many
of the buildings are still being used today.
Come and stroll our boardwalks, smell the aromas from the candle shop and
restaurants. Be sure to pick up your free Visitor's Guide provided
by our Chamber of Commerce, and don't forget to check our Calendar
for upcoming village events, or visit the many apple orchards and
wineries in our area.
The "Artisans of
Sugar Loaf", the ASL, is a non profit organization representing a group of professional artists and craftspeople who live and
work in this historic village. We are
dedicated to preserving the historical and artistic
traditions of our hamlet. We sponsor this
website, and promoted Fine Arts Exhibits in 1999, 2000 and 2001, The
Hambletonian Fine Arts Show & Competitions, which were open to fine
artists and craftsmen in the tri state area. We also award an
Artistic Merit Scholarship to deserving art students in Chester
Academy, and Warwick High School.
Our artisans and
shop owners strive to encourage new artists and interesting shops to
come to Sugar Loaf, put down some roots and join our community.
We are committed
to maintaining our way of life for ourselves and for our children,
and we want Sugar Loaf to remain an oasis, a safe haven for people
to visit and relax, and to enjoy our little slice of history.
We are open year round,
and hours vary, but most businesses are open Wednesdays through
Sundays, 11AM - 6PM. |
