Thousand Islands Arts Center Unveils 2025 Dine-Around Schedule
CLAYTON – On Monday, June 9, the Thousand Islands Arts Center ~ Home of the
Handweaving Museum, released the 2025 Dine-Around schedule. This year includes ten
different unforgettable parties to choose from. Each event offers a one-of-a-kind experience,
hosted by friends and supporters of the Thousand Islands Arts Center.
Some of the events include a guided meditation on Grenell Island, a mosaic necklace class with
a tour of an iconic Grindstone cottage, an organic wine tasting with a tour of Thousand Island
Park, learning the ancient (but trending) game of Mahjong, a sunset river cruise, and more
exciting events to peruse.
Launched in 2014 with the guidance of former trustee Linda Yenawine, the Dine-Arounds have
become a beloved tradition, blending creativity, community, and culture. There is something for
everyone this year with our Dine-Around offerings,” said Katherine Lake, Events Coordinator for
the Thousand Islands Arts Center. “Whether you’re interested in art, history, architecture,
mindfulness, or simply enjoying the beauty of the river, our events promise meaningful and
memorable experiences.”
New to the Arts Center’s offerings this year is an online “Artful Auction” of incredible art-inspired
auction items. Some of the items include a custom painting of your cottage or house done by
Helen Cardamone, a long weekend stay on a riverfront cottage in the Palisades, a custom
weaving by Harriet Burris, a private birthday party in the Arts Center’s pottery studio, and more!
Check out the online auction by visiting the Dine-Around page on the Arts Center’s website.
The Dine-Around series offers attendees the chance to participate in events hosted by

natural beauty, and creative spirit of the Thousand Islands region.
