The Hudson River Museum is a preeminent cultural institution in Westchester County and the New York metropolitan area. Situated on the banks of the Hudson River in Yonkers, New York, the HRM’s mission is to engage, inspire, and connect diverse communities through the power of the arts, sciences, and history.
Current exhibitions include:
Through bodiless artworks that reimagine and transform clothing, No Bodies offers a multitude of societal portraits and asks us to reconsider clothing as not merely attire but a dynamic expression of both personal and collective identities
Clay Conversations: Ceramics from the Gilded to the Digital Age
Juxtaposing selections from the HRM’s Chinese porcelain collection with the work of seven New York–based artists, Clay Conversations spotlights how contemporary ceramicists reference and critique the medium’s longstanding ties to themes of exclusivity and exoticism.
