Outdoor attractions sometimes become a hassle for a variety of reasons. If you prefer more sophisticated day trips without crowds or just need something a little more special, why not spend the day outdoors in a new way? Imagine touring a park of artwork before having dinner with a view. These two spots in Cazenovia, New York come together seamlessly for an outdoor adventure fit for fancier fun or even romance. Dealer’s choice!
Starting the day off by feeding your mind is as easy as a trip to see one of the rotating art installations at Stone Quarry Art Park. This non-profit outdoor experience blends both mother nature and humankind's artistic vision together in one place to take in simultaneously.
Similar to how the right wine can blend with the right dish, the art displays here often use the world around them as part of the experience. Stone Hill is also conveniently open from dawn until dusk daily! It's recommended to visit during agreeable weather when it hasn't rained heavily, however. It would be difficult to enjoy art if your shoes are sticking in the mud as you go.
Artists of various styles and techniques are invited every year to share their creations here in the park, and if you come back, you'll enjoy an ever-changing display as time passes. Art is always changing with time anyways, just like the wind does.
After your artistic adventure and walk in the park, it's nice to settle down with a bite to eat. With a reservation at The Brewster Inn for dinner, you'll find delicious menu options to help satisfy your body after feeding your mind.
Meals are made with as many locally sourced ingredients as possible, and from scratch. Though dining outdoors here is a great addition to a trip like this, you have options. Taking a meal to go if you have a schedule to keep is not out of the ordinary here.
Sitting outdoors only heightens the experience, no matter the mealtime you plan for. Plus, you don't technically need to make reservations. The Brewster recommends doing so anyways, just in case they get busy. If sunset meals are this pretty all of the time, it's no wonder you can't find a seat!
If you love beautiful outdoor spaces in New York to enjoy for special days out of the house, you might love seeing a concert at this historical state park sometime. How cool is it to have a state park that also has a performing arts center? Maybe it will make for another great art and dining day trip just like this one.
