A Community That Creates Together, Thrives Together
The Hudson Armory, a historic landmark nestled in downtown Hudson, Massachusetts, is poised to transform into the region’s premier community arts and cultural center
Our Mission
The Hudson Armory Project is an innovative initiative of the Hudson Cultural Alliance — an all-volunteer, local non-profit invested in the transformation of the The Armory building into a regional arts and cultural center
Transforming a Historic Landmark
In its rehabilitated form, the Armory will promote local arts initiatives, support economic growth, and preserve the rich lineage of a building known for its extensive service to the community.
Arts-Led Advancement
Growing the Creative Economy
A cultural arts center like The Armory in Hudson's downtown with its award-winning Main Street will bring economic benefits, serve a large population, and boost local businesses, while enriching the quality of life for community members and families in the region.
Cultural Investment
Supporting Our Community
The Armory provides a vast open space for diverse purposes such as entertainment, education, and meetings, enabling the Town of Hudson to enhance community events and foster economic growth through collaborations with local organizations.
Historic Preservation
Maintaining Hudson's Legacy
Built by Fenway Park's architect James E. McLaughlin, The Armory has served as a military facility, dance hall, voting site, and training center, and the Hudson Armory Project will showcase its history through public exhibitions.
Community Anchor
Enhancing Cultural Accessibility
Located in downtown Hudson on the Assabet River, The Armory's size and central location make it a natural anchor for the arts and cultural district and an accessible venue for a diverse population from surrounding towns in the 495 MetroWest Corridor.
