Eric Ripert Decouples From a Midtown Cafe - Eater NY

"The Borscht Belt Museum, archiving the Jewish vacationland in the Catskills, backed by Fran Drescher, is hosting a festival on July 29. Located in Ellenville, New York, there will be comedy shows, talks, as well as a food line-up that includes vendors from all over the region, showcasing culturally relevant food like pierogies, Brooklyn Seltzer Boys seltzer, and, needless to say, borscht." - Emma Orlow

For a fledgling start up I was pretty impressed with the current collection. I donated a couple of items as well. They have a long way to go so I encourage all to visit and I had no problem paying the admission price as they need the funds for improvements.

This visit was just for a pop up. The museum is supposed to open in 2025. The exhibits available now were great and evoked fond memories of the area and resorts visited last by the family over 50 years ago.

Two posters and a broom. All of us here at Lansmans Colony dished out 15 dollars each to visit. There's nothing here to see. 10 minutes and you're out. Is this place for real? Just drive around the county and you'll see better. Must be a fat payroll here for the lucky?

I read about this museum on the internet and I said I want to visit their exhibits. The museum had some cool pieces of history of the Borscht Belt. If you are in the area, stop in and say "Hi" or share a story.

Very exciting addition to the area and Catskills. Can’t wait to see the future of this museum when it’s finally built!

Very interesting and well-done exhibits. If you have any connections to the Catskills from the past this is a must see
