Once Albany was designated the New York State capital in 1796, the society moved upstate and first met in Albany’s then-current City Hall. By 1804, the society’s original charter had expired, and they renamed to the Society for the Promotion of the Useful Arts. In 1814, a fine arts committee was established and merged with the society. By 1819, state funding to this organization was cut and the society was ultimately dissolved until 1823.
