RiverArts was envisioned and brought to life by visual artists over 50 years ago. Their pioneering artistic spirit continues to thrive today, as we find new ways to bring color, texture, light, and perspective to our Hudson River community.
RiverArts invites American photographer, Jason Gardner, to join their Artist Conversations series on Sunday, April 14. Gardner will share details from his new book and collection, We the Spirits, exploring his 15-year journey through 15 countries as he visually documented the ritual and festival of Carnival.
RiverArts will present two of Mozart’s great string quintets, No. 3 in C Major K. 515 and No. 4 in g minor K. 516, along with String Circle by Kenji Bunch and Jessie Montgomery’s Strum.
RiverArts presents the second installment in their brand-new Channels series, featuring Evan Chapman. Channels is a three-concert music series that defies boundaries and celebrates the river as a means of travel, exploration, and a source of new ideas.
RiverArts presents River Readings, a curated evening of play readings by contemporary playwrights. Three playwrights will share selected scenes from works in progress read by distinguished actors. Conversation and Q&A with the playwrights will take place following the performance.
