KINGSTON, N.Y. — High wire artist Philippe Petit will host a knot-tying workshop on Sunday, June 5, at the Hudson River Maritime Museum, 50 Rondout Landing.
Two workshop time slots, 10 to 11:30 a.m. and 1 to 2:30 p.m., are available for the workshop, titled “Nuts for Knots.”

A master rigger, he personally rigs every wire on which he walks
Petit will share a selection of loops, bends, hitches, binding knots, and termination knots in the hands-on workshop. Each workshop has a maximum number of 14 participants. Registration is $20 for individual tickets or two tickets for $35.
