We are thrilled to announce that 2025 marks our first year of three seasonal Basilica Farm & Flea markets presented in collaboration with LikeMindedObjects, we are excited to support small business all year round !

In the Hudson Valley we live by the seasons, our agricultural activities reflect this and so do our community gathering styles. In this spirit, each market will be unique to the season, hosting different types of regional vendors with their singular wares and cultural programming. For Spring Market think Mother’s Day, planting gardens, spring *green* cleaning products, home improvement & signing up for Hudson River Ferry rides! For Summer Market think popsicles , sunglasses , handmade summer dresses , farm veggie bounty and juicy cocktails. For Holiday Market, which is the cornerstone of our annual BFF marketplaces, think harvest, wool layers , warm drinks and anti big box Black Friday gift giving.

We are about to roll out our Spring Market Vendor / Highlight Info next week and are so excited for what’s coming together to kick off our year of BFF, we hope you will join us in shopping local and supporting our farmers , makers and collectors ❤️

Factory Dreams on the eve of turning 15 years old. May 2025 bring an abundant of inspiration to all. Brave new world calls for adventurous spirits and resilient vision for all that we want to be. Think out of the box, burn bright and unite in the mystery of it all. Stay strange, don’t be a stranger and thanks to all who have reveled in these industrial walls together.

2024 YEAR IN REVIEW
(you can view the whole post on our website, link in bio)

2024 featured packed, once-in-a-lifetime gigs, happy, bustling markets, essential gallery shows of work by local artists, unbelievable parties, family activities, thoughtful film screenings, and so much more. It was an amazing season of programming in our eco-friendly foundry by the river.

Basilica Hudson has enchanted a global audience of diverse dreamers, bringing in performers and attendees from all over the region, the state, and the world for dazzling, epically scaled, in-person gatherings. By now an undeniable Hudson Valley gem, Basilica has in its 14 years of operation become the place where artists, makers, and other wonderful humans collectively enrich our lives.

You are a part of that magic, too, and here’s a look at what we got up to together this year.

THANK YOU FOR A WONDERFUL YEAR IN THE FACTORY!
