Renovations: Hudson Museum Renovation Overview

Museum Hours & Contact Information

  The Hudson Museum
The Hudson Museum Mission Statement

Welcome!

The new design for the MCA

For over twenty years, the Hudson Museum has offered exhibits, guided tours and gallery programs. The Maine Center for the Arts is undergoing a major renovation that will bring the facility into ADA compliance and enable us to serve the University community, our patrons and enhance both the performances and exhibition experience. Since all of the Hudson Museum’s exhibits in the Maine Center for the Arts were de-installed for the renovation project, we will bring our programs to you. The Hudson Museum's casework and collections are traveling to venues around the state. Look for the Hudson Museum in Machias, Belfast, Bangor, Portland, and Gorham. Also we will create mini-exhibits to accompany MCA performances. Visit the Hudson Museum’s Events and Exhibits Pages for more information on these offerings.
