Community Projects
Hudson Valley Arts Collective is more than an open mic—it’s a movement to give back and create lasting impact. We channel creativity into meaningful action. Each project is rooted in our belief that poetry can build bridges, amplify voices, and support causes that matter close to home.
Poems for a Wish
Hudson Valley Arts Collective’s Poems for a Wish is a community-driven anthology that brings together the work of local poets in support of a greater cause. This collection celebrates creativity, connection, and compassion, with 80% of proceeds donated directly to Make-A-Wish® Hudson Valley. By publishing and sharing diverse voices, we hope to uplift our community while helping grant life-changing wishes for children facing critical illnesses. If you'd like to be a part of the collection, you can submit your work here.
