Inspiration in the mountains

The Adirondack Mountains have long been a backdrop of inspiration and creativity -- so it’s no surprise that the arts and music scene in the Tupper Lake area is alive and growing. From live music and performances to artist galleries and traditional arts workshops, there is a unique mix of artistic and creative experiences to explore throughout our region.

Shopping

Shop, shop, shop!

When you visit Tupper Lake, you’ll want to head home with more than just beautiful photos and a lifetime of memories. So while you are here: get shopping! 

Treasure hunting in Tupper Lake can turn up everything from unique souvenirs and jewelry to rustic Adirondack furniture and impressive artwork. And while you shop, don’t forget to stock your pantries with some authentic local food products and of course some sweet maple syrup (you know, the kind served at our local eateries!) for those mornings when you miss waking up in the Adirondacks.
