Tap into the sights, sounds, and tastes of the maple season! Our Maple Festival is an outdoor adventure with several unique areas of the Museum to explore! In each, you may find maple history, live music, vendors, food, bonfires, hands-on activities, storytelling…its outdoor fun for the whole family! Join us for a delightful experience at our Nature Center and Historic Village, where you can explore the maple sugaring process, enjoy seasonal storytelling, participate in hands-on activities like tree-tapping and candle making, savor delicious maple-themed foods, and shop from a variety of local vendors while listening to live music under the festival tent.

The Nitrate Picture Show features screenings of vintage nitrate prints from international archives and the Eastman Museum’s own collection and lectures from leading archivists, inviting you to experience the art and science of film preservation, from print conservation to archival projection. Film fans who have attended our festival before will tell you that it's the rare experience of watching original nitrate prints projected in the cinema while surrounded by other enthusiasts that really makes the Nitrate Picture Show unique.
