Festival Director
Tim Walsh
Tim is a musician and music educator based in Hudson. After decades of playing corporate, wedding and bar gigs, he now spends his time happily working on community music projects. You can depend on Tim for a chat in the IGA, for a righteous “right-on, right-on brother/sister” greeting, and his enthusiasm for your journey in music.
Creative Director
Donna Stewart
Rarely a day goes by when Donna’s time does not include loading musical equipment in and out of her car, hosting a jam or ukulele lesson group, singing, dancing, oh and creating stage or porch props. Practically raised on a dance stage, Donna is the perfect Creative Director because it runs through her veins, multicolored and always to a fast beat! We can’t wait to see what she comes up with next.
Marketing/Volunteer Director
Sandy Racicot
Sandy, a 4th gen Hudsonite knows one thing for sure…Hudson has always been a creative community that thrives when infused with art and music. She loves to promote this notion to all and considers Hudson Porchfest a heart space that will only grow for the community and beyond.
Director emeritus
Phil Prince
We celebrate Phil's decision to retire from our Hudson Porchfest Committee in 2025, because he has so many wonderful places to travel to, and he has done so much for hpf. Thank you Phil for being such an amazing member of our team for many years, and part of the team that launched Hudson Porchfest as an official not- for-profit organization in 2024. We are happy you will have more time to explore this great big wonderful world. As always, Phil is generous and when able, will volunteer for Hudson Porchfest. Cheers to Phil!
