Boughton Place is a ten minute drive from both the NYS Thruway and the Mid-Hudson Bridge in Highland. Near the Hudson Valley's newest tourist attraction, the Walkway Over the Hudson, we are within walking distance from the newly expanded Hudson Valley Rail Trail! Proximate to all Ulster County tourist destinations, we are easily reached by Metro-North and Adirondack Trailways.
Home to the renowned Moreno stage, the Boughton Place property hosts two main buildings on four acres in addition to our Wellness Cottage. We have many workshop and classroom spaces, kitchens, a large screened porch, and landscaped grounds which can be used for events, workshops, and hospitality.
The Moreno stage, recognized as a vital symbol of the worldwide psychodrama community, also serves as a great venue for performance arts; theater music, dance, poetry recitals, and more. Our theater, which can accommodate an audience of 65, lends itself to intimate performances and has wonderful acoustics.
A distinguishing feature of Boughton Place is its ability to host overnight accommodations. Our two main buildings offer guest lodging, making us a unique venue for not only Ulster County and Hudson Valley arts and multidisciplinary programs, but for those from the greater NY Metropolitan area and elsewhere. This residential component deeply enhances programs that want to provide multi-day and evening immersion experiences for participants. We offer 14 beds, but can accommodate many more. There are three full bathrooms and two half-baths (and an outdoor shower), two fully supplied kitchens, a large covered porch ideal for gathering for meals, a gazebo, and beautifully landscaped grounds. A labyrinth on the grounds is currently being restored.
