The Carl and Lucy Wagner Art Gallery is scheduled to open on April 18 within the educational building of the Hudson United Methodist Church in Hudson. The inaugural event, running from 2 to 5 pm, will feature a reception showcasing several paintings by the late Lucy Wagner, a longtime member of the church and active community leader.
This opening highlights the growing integration of dedicated art spaces within community and religious institutions in Hudson. By memorializing the Wagners, who were prominent local figures, the gallery establishes a new venue for regional cultural engagement and honors the artistic legacy of its namesakes.
