Aaron Levi Garvey, Curator of The Hudson Eye, a new multidisciplinary arts program being launched by the Jonah Bokaer Arts Foundation, will phone in to tell us about this artist-driven festival being presented in Hudson over Labor Day weekend. In the second hour, hear about how Hudson Hall will be focusing on Herman Melville and his epic Moby Dick. Artist Shanekia McIntosh talks about her collaborative performance piece, "Call Me Ishmael," being presented Aug. 2 at the Second Ward Foundation as part of the celebration of Melville’s 200th birthday. Hosts Tom DePietro and Ellen Thurston will be giving away tickets to "Call Me Ishmael" during the broadcast.
