| Signs of Summer All Summer Long at Citizens Bank.
The theme for the Arts Alliance’s latest visual art exhibit is “Signs of Summer.” Although the Arts Alliance organizes shows at this bank all year long, this is the first time the exhibition time will be for 4 months – until September 24. All are welcome to also view the work during the Citizens Bank’s new hours: 8:30 am - 4 pm on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays; 8:30 am - 6 pm Thursdays and Fridays; and 8:30 am - 12 noon Saturdays. The wheelchair-accessible exhibit is located at 17 Pope Street, next to Hudson Town Hall, 3 blocks from the rotary. There is no admission fee. This exhibit is made possible through the support of the Massachusetts Cultural Council, as administered by the Acton-Boxborough, Berlin, Bolton, Clinton, Hudson, Marlborough, Northborough, Southborough and Stow Cultural Councils. |
| Celebrating Youth Art 05.28.2010 thru 06.06.2010 |
| Downtown Hudson will be brightened by visual art done by K-8 students attending Farley, Forest Avenue, JFK Middle, Hubert Kindergarten, Mulready, and St. Michael, as well as Arts Afterschool, an Arts Alliance program, thanks to community-minded merchants who loan use of their windows for the annual exhibit. Organized by Barbara Worrest, program director of the Arts Alliance, the colorful community-wide exhibit is intentionally scheduled to help usher in the Assabet Valley Chamber of Commerce’s Hudson Community Fest. So between May 28 and June 6, take a stroll along Main and Washington Streets and admire the talent of young budding artists and the strong visual art programs our community should be proud of!

| River's Edge Players Auditions 06.17.2010 and 06.18.2010 |
| Auditions for Timely Musical about Water Conservation – June 17-18
Area adults are invited to participate in an award-winning musical with messages about environmental responsibility, corporate mismanagement and petty small town politics. An hilarious tale about when water is worth its weight in gold, the story imagines a future where citizens are charged fees for using public facilities regulated by a single monopoly. It is about capitalism, corruption and, yes, even love. Auditions are Thursday, June 17 and Friday, June 18 from 7 to 9 pm at Hudson High School, 69 Brigham Street. Call backs, if needed, will be June 19. Headshots and a resume are welcome, but not required. Anyone trying out should have a song prepared and bring the sheet music. There is some dancing in the show. Director is Sarah Worrest of Hudson. Musical director is Alexandre Abdoulaev of Jamaica Plain. For more information call the Arts Alliance at 978-562-1646. Performances will be presented Friday, August 13 and Saturday, August 14, at Hudson High School. “Urinetown” is a dreadful title, but a socially responsible story that teaches us what the future could bring if environmental sensitivity is not implemented now. Its music and lyrics are by Mark Hollmann, with book and lyrics by Greg Kotis. “Urinetown” was produced on Broadway in September, 2001. It was nominated for 10 Tony Awards and won Best Book and Best Score. URINETOWN is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI. 421 West 54th Street, New York, NY 10019 Phone: (212) 541-4684 Fax: (212) 397-4684 www.MTIShows.com |
