Olana was the 19th century home and studio of artist Frederic Edwin Church and his family. This 250-acre historic site includes 5 miles of carriage drives, most of which are pedestrian only to preserve the designed landscape that Church created his canvasses. Stages’ scope of work included acoustics and audio-visual designs for the multi-purpose room and related spaces, as well as recommendations for sound isolation and noise control from external and internal noise sources. This project opened in September 2024.
