Known as both Hometown USA and the Gateway to the Adirondacks, the city of Glens Falls has much to recommend it. The Adirondack Mountains provide visitors with a selection of outdoor activities and also serve as the focus for the Chapman Historical Museum, an organization that seeks to preserve Southeastern Adirondack culture. For a different kind of comprehensive view of the area, visitors can charter a balloon in Glens Falls to get above the Adirondacks. Summers feature the Adirondack Theatre Festival, an event that stages three plays as well as a musical and also offers a host of supplemental workshops. The arts are further represented at the Hyde Collection, featuring works by masters such as Da Vinci and Picasso, among others. Professional football, baseball and hockey can all be found in Glens Falls as well, providing year-round sporting action.
