The Gerry Foundation

Established by Alan Gerry in 1996, the Gerry Foundation is dedicated to preserving the quality of life and general welfare of Sullivan County and the surrounding area through economic and community development.

As a vehicle to help energize the economy of Sullivan County, the Foundation acquired the site of the original Woodstock Festival the same year. In order to reach the full potential of the location, the Foundation has subsequently purchased several hundred acres of surrounding property in Bethel, NY.

The Gerry Foundation is developing the area as a world class performing arts venue that will attract visitors and future homeowners to Sullivan County.

In 1998 and 1999 a series of "A Day In The Garden" concerts were held to commemorate the history and celebrate the future of the site in Bethel. These events were staged by GF Entertainment, a subsidiary of the Gerry Foundation. The concerts tested the viability of the area as a music venue ranging from rock to country and indicated that events could be held successfully.
