Our Mission

Our mission is to create a dynamic center that engages, educates, and enriches the community through arts and culture.

Our Vision

Transforming a Historic Landmark

The Armory on the Assabet fosters an inclusive culture through performance and the arts to connect people, catalyze curiosity and cultivate creativity.

Grow the Creative Economy

The Armory on the Assabet will bring economic benefits, serve a large population, and boost local businesses, while enriching the quality of life for the community and region.

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.

Maintaining Hudson's Legacy

Built by Fenway Park’s architect James E. McLaughlin, the Armory building has served as a military facility, dance hall, voting site, and training center, and the Armory on the Assabet will showcase its history through public exhibitions of historical resources and artifacts.

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 along the Assabet River and in the 495 Metrowest Corridor.

Show Your Support

The Key to a Thriving Community is You

Each donation is a step towards a visionary arts center with the boundless potential to provide entertainment, education, creative expression, and social connections.
