“History of Barn Building in NY State" 
Date: June 14th 2006  Time:    7PM 
A  Presentation by Randy Nash 

@  the Cazenovia Public Library 
 



This  presentation is a  historical and  educational treat for anyone who 
loves and appreciates barns and the romantic  rural community that they sustain.  
The barn is a common artifact that  everyone is familiar with; we drive to 
the country to view them and they are  favorite subjects for photographers and 
painters.  Randy will give us the  background knowledge to look at them in a 
different way.  The barns of our  state have evolved historically through 
several eras and usages, "which is  written in the fabric of the building." 
Randy  Nash is well-known in the state for his knowledge of NYS barns.  The 
owner  of New York State Barn Co., Inc., he has been studying and preserving 
barns in  the state for 25 years and has personally worked on over 150 
buildings.  He  has lectured throughout the state on the history and development of 
barns for 15  years and has also taught a barn history course at University 
College.  A native of Pompey and  lifelong resident of NYS, he and his family live 
in a Dutch barn converted into  an energy-efficient home in Cazenovia.
