Greetings Art Lovers:

The 29th Annual Dutchess County Executive's Arts Awards, on October 7 are less than one month away!  This is also our major fundraiser for the year - the dollars you spend on tickets and auction items funds our work in Dutchess County. So feel free to bring a friend or two to the awards, pick up some great auction items, and feel good about supporting your local arts! Check the webpage for awardees, tickets, and a sneak peak of our  fabulous auction!

Saturday Arts Mid-Hudson is proud to present two events. From 1:30-3:00 p.m., join us for Kimono Kitsuke: The Art of Wearing Kimono, an interactive program where youth and adult guests can try on kimono while learning the proper ways to wrap and tie them. Then come back for the opening of "I, Too Sing Shakespeare," featuring Judy Sigunick's Shakespeare-inspired sculptural pieces from 5:30-7:30 p.m. and then plan on joining us for other Shakespeare-inspired events through October.
