The Hudson Arts Coalition (HArC) is a member-based organization with a mission to create a fertile and nurturing environment for the arts in the greater Hudson area.

With regional networks, resources, and support, HArC provides leadership in cultural planning and advocacy in the following ways:

• The creation of back-end and public-facing calendars to facilitate cross-promotion and mitigate unnecessary competition.

• Provide enrichment for members with monthly meetings and presentations.

• Strategically distribute tourism growth in Hudson so that all community members are served.

• Investigate initiatives such as cultural shuttle busses, artist commissions / residencies, and outreach opportunities.
