Home Sweet Library: Hudson Area Library Annual Gala

Please join us at our fundraising celebration to raise funds to support the life-enriching opportunities that the Hudson Area Library creates for everyone in our community.
We’re thrilled to celebrate the Library with you!
Friday, September 6 at 6:00pm
at The Caboose
60 South Front Street
in Hudson, NY

Our Library is a place to access resources and learn new skills, to experience new things and to connect with one another and the world. There is always so much going on – children’s story hours, local history presentations, job search help, book talks, digital media programs, language learning, and special events. Your support is critical to us maintaining and growing our programs, resources, and services.

The Home Sweet Library Gala is not just a fundraiser; it’s a celebration of our community coming together to support the place that many of us consider a second home. This year’s theme reflects our commitment to nurturing a welcoming space where everyone can find solace, inspiration, and connection.

Lions of the Library Award

We’re also very excited to honor Kelley Drahushuk as this year’s “Lion of the Library,” an award which recognizes individuals in our community who have demonstrated exceptional support and dedication to the Hudson Area Library.
