Hello Hudson –
One would think, in a small city of less than 6,000 people that I would run out of stuff to blog about every week. Au contraire, mon frère! I’m swamped. There’s plenty of interesting people doing interesting things in little old Hudson. Who knew?
-Trix
This week, meet Brian Belt of the Mental Health Awareness and Creative Arts Gallery. Brian runs an art gallery off 7th Street Park that showcases art made by those in recovery. The artists make 100% of the proceeds. Check it out!
