Hudson-Fulton-Champlain Quadricentennial
The Hudson-Fulton-Champlain Quadricentennial celebrates the 400th anniversary of the voyages of discovery made by Henry Hudson and Samuel de Champlain, as well as the 200th anniversary of Robert Fulton's steamship voyage along the Hudson River. These voyages were some of the most significant events in European exploration, navigation and contact between Native Americans and Europeans. The anniversaries will be observed in 2007 and 2009. The Hudson-Fulton-Champlain Quadricentennial Commission is developing and promoting plans and activities to commemorate these historic events which established New York State's identity as America's Gateway and its first frontier.
