Join us at the The Bundy Museum of History & Art Photography Gallery for the opening reception of Hidden in Plain Sight. This traveling exhibition showcases black and white photos by Bruce Harvey of our 2018-19 Seven to Save list of at-risk historic places.

Hidden in Plain Sight will remain on view in Binghamton October 4-November 1.

Thanks to our local partners at the City of Binghamton, Binghamton Economic Development, and Preservation Association of the Southern Tier.

The Preservation League’s Seven to Save program has been drawing statewide attention to New York’s most important and at-risk historic places since 1999. Hidden in Plain Sight began in 2017 as a way to further that mission.

The exhibition contains beautiful black and white photos of this year’s Seven to Save designees. It uses art as yet another way to rally advocates to the sites that tell unique stories of New York’s communities.

Through Seven to Save, the League has worked with local stakeholders to avert demolition, develop plans for reuse, secure landmark designation, and foster greater public awareness of the value of New York’s unique and irreplaceable historic resources. Threats to dozens of at-risk buildings, landscapes, downtowns, and neighborhoods have been reduced, and in many cases, eliminated by the Seven to Save designation and subsequent actions.

The 2018-19 traveling exhibition of Hidden in Plain Sight was made possible thanks to our generous sponsors:
Erie Canalway National Heritage Corridor; PBDW Architects; Gray Slate Partners; Consigli; Phoebe Powell Bender; Matthew Bender; Reverend Dr. Thomas F. Pike; Michel & Caroline Rob Zaleski
