Drawing: Albany Barn Fusion 2016
Drawing's closed! Winner's been emailed!
The Albany Barn's annual Fusion event -- exploring "the intersection of art and industry" -- is October 14 this year. And we have a pair of "catalyst" tickets to give away. Maybe to you.
To enter the drawing, please answer this question in the comments:
What are two Capital Region things that should be combined -- and what would they create?
We've asked a similar drawing question in the past and gotten fun answers. It could be anything -- two geographic areas of the region, a drink from one place and a food item from another, whatever. Be creative. We'll pick one winner at random.
Here's what's lined up for Fusion this year:
+ custom menu by Chef Michelle Hines Abram with special guests Chef Derek Adams and Chef Benji Blanco + wine and craft beverage pairings from Empire Wine & Druthers Brewing Co.
+ decadent coffee and desserts by The Cookie Factory
+ musical selections to keep you moving
+ live art installations and exhibition featuring artists in residence
+ silent auction and more!
And with the "catalyst" tickets, you'll also get reserved parking and commemorative Albany Barn glassware with a signature cocktail.
Fusion is Friday, October 14 starting at 6 pm at the Albany Barn. Tickets are $75 each / catalyst tickets are $125 ($200 for two) -- and they're available online.
The event is a fundraiser for the Albany Barn.

A summer bicycle ride to Lake George and a swim at the Million Dollar Beach.

Climbing a fire tower and taking in the view with my girlfriend who is (was) afraid of heights.
It created a fire tower climbing monster and it's awesome!

I'd combine the apple cider donuts from Golden Harvest Farm with the original tart froyo from Ayelada to create fall's best creation, having a taste of both worlds

Nine Pin Cider & any Adirondacks mountain - at the top of every mountain climbed could be a free Nine Pin to enjoy for your efforts. That would be such a win!

Delicious cookie shots like the one offered by Dominique Ansel, but making it more local - delicious cookie from a place like Sweet Sue's in Troy, combined with Battenkill Valley Creamery milk

hmm. How about state government and oversight? Those two things don't seem to go together now, but I sure think they should!

El Loco & El Mariachi - so that I would no longer have to choose between El Loco's margaritas and El Mariachi's chips & salsa when going out for Mexican!

The Albany food and wine fest with son type of entertainment. And maybe seating? Please?

Pretty much any restaurant or brewery + uber, so that we can actually go out without worrying about driving but still be able to get to our place in the suburbs after. Something I definitely miss about other cities/states I've lived in or visited!

I want to combine the funky artsy shops in Lake Placid, with the gorgeous mountain views and beautiful, clear Mirror Lake swimming opportunities in Lake Placid. Or I just want Lake Placid to be closer. And it wouldn't hurt to put downtown Troy on Lark St. My husband and I are always wondering if Lark Street has gone downhill or if we just got too old to enjoy it? It's so close, but so far from what I want to do with my night...

The NYS Museum + Gala event (example, Beaujolais Nouveau, Drink Albany, etc.) = a night surrounded with history, entertainment, food, and drink; all supporting local businesses and artisans in the capital region.

The City of Troy combined with more events at Prospect Park to create a city that utilizes it's park space more!
