New York State Insider: New York State Senator Pete Harckham 40th District: Hat Factory Visit.

I recently visited Winter Tree Pottery situated in the Hat Factory, a growing Peekskill commercial center. Winter Tree is part of the Peekskill Clay Studios, which has space with modern facilities available to artists. While at the Hat Factory, I also visited the home of the National Maritime Historical Society and saw a vintage newspaper featuring coverage of the Titanic sinking  and a book about the doomed ocean liner signed by two crewmembers. Thank you to Winter Tree artist Judyth Stavans and Hat Factory owner Ben Green for showing me around.
