Reviews
"Old riverside train depot converted into a wonderful venue for readings and writing classes. 12-23, the same."
"Hello. In September 2019, me and my mother knocked at your door. We saw a group of good people sitting at a table. We just came from the train station and we were not sure were we where (we were looking for the cemetery, looking for Washington Irving's grave). We asked for the restrooms, and tried not to interrupt your meeting. Thank you. Greetings from Mexico"
"Dedicated to advancing the craft of writing in the lower Hudson area on many levels. I've taken several poetry workshops, e.g., one from Patricia Smith a few years back, who is the recent winner of a $100,000 poetry prize and a four time National Poetry Slam champion. Other faculty have included prominent artists such as nationally known performance artist, Karen Finley. So this caliber of faculty. My most frequent use of the Center is to attend the monthly third Friday of the month Open Mic readings which are unfailingly a most welcome box of chocolates... Thanks to these folks for their long-term labor of love."
"Impressive location at the Sleepy Hollow train station. Neighborhood is amazing, facility is quite nice, terrace is refreshing and the view of the Hudson River is stunning. Fabulous experience for a first time guest."
"What a terrific gem, where art and poetry is encouraged and revitalized. A vintage feel, overlooking the Hudson with just the nicest people."
