My older son and I recently visited Ossining, New York to attend a Weir Tour. You're probably…read morethinking, "What in the world is a Weir?" First I must talk about the Old Croton Aqueduct. Constructed between 1837 and 1842, the Old Croton Aqueduct was built to supply New York City with fresh drinking water after local water resources had become polluted and inadequate for the growing population. It stretched 41 miles from the Old Croton Dam to the present-day location of the New York Public Library Main Branch and Bryant Park. It was a gravity-fed aqueduct which dropped 13 inches every mile. This means that water flowed to the city completely energy-free. 35 million gallons of water flowed into it daily. Following the completion of the New Croton Aqueduct in 1890, the old aqueduct became superseded. It continued to remain in service until it was shut down in 1955. Today, the surface of the old aqueduct is the Old Croton Aqueduct Trail: a recreational trail for pedestrians and cyclists. Sites along the old aqueduct are maintained by the Friends of the Old Croton Aqueduct: a volunteer organization that hosts several related tours. So what is a weir? A weir is a concrete structure built alongside or on top of an aqueduct. Their purpose was to give direct access to an aqueduct tunnel. Weir tenders could descend inside, control the water and divert it into secondary tunnels away from the main aqueduct channel. The purpose of this was to lower water levels so maintenance could be performed inside the tunnel. Six weirs were located along the aqueduct (as well as 25 ventilators). The existing weir in Ossining is the one that is open for tours. Before getting to Ossining, my son and I first stopped to see the Croton Dam. It was quite an awesome sight! Then we met up with our tour group at the Ossining Park & Rec Center where we first learned about the history of the aqueduct, the town of Ossining, and the nearby Sing Sing Prison. Then we saw the beautiful "Double Arch Bridge" before finally entering the weir and descending into the tunnel. It was a really cool experience and we sure learned a lot! We look forward to attending more tours sponsored by the Friends of the OCA in the future!

The exhibit, which featured some really cutting edge art, was free! Aside from this exhibition, most of what they seem to put on are individual artists and community artists (including students in their art classes). The center also has a pre-K, art classes, guest speakers for various topics. They have classes and programs for drawing, painting, ceramics, photography. They have ballet and dance classes. They have science based programs for 3D printing, robotics, coding. Music classes too! So while they may not be a full on art gallery, they are a pillar in the community, working to get residents, particularly children, engaged in the arts.
