Visit us for incredible museum opportunities.
At The HUB Station, we want the community here in Hudson, North Carolina to be able to conveniently experience arts and culture. This is why we proudly host The Mitford Museum, which offers a unique glimpse into the life and legacy of author Jan Karon. Karon, who is a former student of the Hudson School, drew inspiration from her experiences here to create the beloved Mitford Series. This museum’s first room is dedicated to her first-grade classroom, where she was encouraged by her teacher to pursue writing and art.
This museum showcases different items related to Karon’s early life, as well as the fictional town of Mitford. When you visit, this allows you to immerse yourself in the world she created. This space not only honors the work of Karon but also celebrates the enduring connection between Karon and her hometown.
You can explore this museum alongside other attractions when you visit us. For example, our arts center also hosts events, classes, and performances to help create a vibrant community for both visitors and artists.
Whether you are a fan of Jan Karon’s novels or simply appreciate the arts, The Mitford Museum offers a charming and insightful experience that highlights the rich cultural heritage here in our community.
