Director's Letters

Embracing the crisp air and vibrant hues of autumn, the Hudson River Museum extends a warm invitation to join us in celebrating the season of gratitude and reflection.

This weekend we are thrilled to open two important new exhibitions that connect the local to the global in art, music, and culture: Kindred Worlds: The Priscila and Alvin Hudgins Collection and Hip Hop Heroes.

As we embark on this new season, we look forward to sharing more remarkable moments and experiences with you, our cherished community. Your support and engagement are the heart of the Hudson River Museum, and we can’t wait to welcome you back for a season filled with culture and connection.

As supporters of our Museum, you are the heart and soul of our institution. Your unwavering dedication, generosity, and passion have enabled us to flourish and fulfill our mission of engaging, inspiring, and connecting our diverse communities through the power of the arts, sciences, and history.

After years of planning and construction, we will debut our new West Wing, opening to the public on Friday, June 16. This transformational project will bring a premier museum experience to all in Westchester and the metropolitan area.

This Women’s History Month, learn more about women in the arts and sciences who have stories that deserve to be told.

As we take stock of a memorable year at the Hudson River Museum and prepare for the debut of our new West Wing in the first half of 2023, I am reminded yet again that we are a dynamic and resilient community.
