Introducing Keepsake at THE Academy

Nestled in the heart of the Hudson Valley, Keepsake is the most breathtaking, chic wedding venue for couples who are looking for more than your average event space. We welcome you to host an unforgettable reception and ceremony, adding your own chapter to the property’s historic history.

Facilities and Capacity

The city-romantic reception space features impressive 20' ceilings accented with bright white structured beams and Edison-bulb lighting. The glowing natural light invited by the panoramic pane windows warms the natural oak farmhouse-styled tables and chairs, exposed brick, and modern brushed brass scones. With the ability to welcome 250 seated guests or up to 500 standing guests, we ensure no one needs to miss out on the fun.

Couples can arrange the space as they wish, empowering you to get creative and think big when planning your event. The spacious wedding suite is available for the party to use as a get-ready space, or simply to take a moment’s pause from the event.

Photo opportunities range from posing in front of our breathtaking murals by Surface of Beauty, inside our intimate private outdoor patio, and only steps away from the gorgeous Hudson Valley River views.
