Become a Friends of Clermont Member
Our Mission
We are a not-for-profit organization created to support the work of NY State in conserving the living legacy of Clermont State Historic Site. We engage our varied users to explore the multifaceted assets of the site, broadening use, access, and enjoyment.
​
Let's all be Friends!
The Friends of Clermont have developed the site’s growing research library, restored three formal gardens, restored the circa 1910 Children’s Playhouse, mounted two important loan exhibitions, and encouraged the donation of nearly 8,000 historical objects to Clermont’s collections. The Friends also supports additional educational programming for local youth so they can connect with our site, including our largest program, Harvesting History.
The Friends of Clermont are continuing to grow and support Clermont State Historic Site with the help of our members. Membership in the Friends of Clermont is open to anyone who shares the goals and mission of the organization.
