Albany has always been a city rich in history, culture, and community pride. Now, we're building on that legacy with renewed energy and intention. From our Hudson River waterfront to our neighborhood corridors, we're lighting up public spaces with free, signature events that bring residents and visitors together.
The lights are on. The doors are open and Albany is just getting started.
Sincerely,
—Mayor Dr. Dorcey L. Applyrs
