more than a gallery, the beck is a hub for business

The Beck, located in historic downtown Rhinebeck, NY, is a by-appointment Design Gallery created in order to showcase Hudson Valley makers and artists.

This new creative hub will amplify the voices of local creatives and provide an engaging way for both residents and visitors to tap into the pulse of the region.

The Beck also houses the professional offices of Ana Claudia Design Studio and Smyle & Associates, LLC.
