Saddle Up for HRM’s Summer of the Cowboy
This summer, the Hudson River Museum is proud to present two stunning exhibitions that illuminate the depth, beauty, and complexity of Black life and culture across the United States.
Modern Women / Modern Vision at the HRM
Masha Turchinsky invites you to experience Modern Women / Modern Vision, which features nearly one hundred photographs by some of the most influential artists of the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries.
A Year of Impact, Community, and Resilience
This year reaffirmed the HRM’s role as a vital cultural anchor and regional leader: a place where art, history, science, and lived experience intersect, guided by access, excellence, and innovation.
Bringing Heat, Throwing Shade, and Working Together
This season, the Hudson River Museum is bringing our own version of the heat, with two timely exhibitions opening this weekend that feature innovation and the promising outcomes of artistic ingenuity and community collaborations.

HRM’s “Museums for America” Grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) Is Terminated
It is with great disappointment that the Hudson River Museum shares that we were notified on the night of April 9 that our Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) matching grant was abruptly terminated.
Act Now to Save IMLS!
Our IMLS grant is intended to help the Hudson River Museum be able to inform scholarship and share our collection with a wide audience. The work would not be possible without this impactful grant.
It’s Museums Advocacy Day: Will You Tell Congress That Museums Matter?
