Arts & Humanities Advisory Council
On May 20, 2019, the Village Board of Trustees established the Arts & Humanities Advisory Council (AHAC) to work to support increased public awareness and appreciation for the arts, the integration of art into our public spaces, and to recognize and celebrate the achievements of our local arts community. The Council meets on the first Tuesday of each month, typically at the Croton Free Library.
This council was formed to advise the Board of Trustees on matters affecting the preservation and use of the natural and man-made features and conditions of the village. It is empowered to develop and conduct programs of public information in the community which shall be designed to foster increased understanding of the nature of environmental problems and issues and support for their solutions. The council meets once per month.
Diversity and Inclusion Committee
The Diversity and Inclusion Committee was created by the Board of Trustees on November 5, 2018. The committee was created to develop and implement programs designed to create a spirit of diversity and inclusion for all that live, work in, and visit the Village of Croton-on-Hudson. The committee meets on an as-needed basis.
