Director's Letters

According to a new medical study that was published this week in the British Medical Journal, visiting museums can increase your longevity. Indulge in some quality time at the HRM with those you hold dear, and give yourself the gift of self care during the holidays.

On Sunday, September 29, we were thrilled and honored to welcome António Guterres, Secretary-General of the United Nations, to the HRM. We at the Museum find great inspiration in his tireless dedication to confronting climate change, advancing gender and educational equity, and promoting social justice around the globe.

Masha Turchinsky, Director, and Thomas A. D’Auria, Chair, Board of Trustees, announce exciting improvements coming to the Hudson River Museum, thanks to support from the Westchester County Board of Legislators, the City of Yonkers, and New York State.

Happy New Year! Last year was an outstanding year at the Museum, with a roster of stellar exhibitions, record-breaking attendance, and new programs and initiatives inspired by art, science, and our shared history. In celebration of our Centennial this year, we will be sharing key moments from our rich history here, on Currents.

As we close out one year and ready ourselves for the next, Director Masha Turchinsky wishes you and your families a joyous holiday season and looks forward to exploring new shores together in 2019.

Thanksgiving is a time to reflect, enjoy each other’s company, and express our gratitude. On behalf of the Hudson River Museum, Director Masha Turchinsky would like to thank you for being part of our community.

Welcome to fall and new beginnings at the Hudson River Museum! Director Masha Turchinsky reveals our new identity and website, as well as a dynamic season filled with many wonderful ways for all to participate.
