Are You RiverWise?

Take the quiz to find out!
The Hudson River Maritime Museum's solar-powered boat Solaris and the Schooner Apollonia joined forces to do an educational fleet sail from Albany to New York City in June and August of 2020. With livestreams, videos, photos, activities, and blog posts shared along the way, we helped everyone become more "RiverWise," learning about the maritime heritage of the Hudson River.

This is the the first of hopefully many trips exploring the Hudson River. If you'd like to sponsor this the RiverWise Project, providing free educational material to the public, please visit our Support page.

Support the Films

In June and August of 2020 the Hudson River Maritime Museum and the schooner Apollonia traversed the Hudson River from Albany to New York City, bringing the public with them via social media and recording documentary footage along the way. This is the story of that voyage. "RiverWise: The Journey Begins" represents the first of many documentary films to come, telling the stories of the Hudson River.
