Today is World Kindness Day!!

At MACSC, we are fortunate to witness the power of kindness every single day. It's found in the volunteers who give their time, the neighbors who look out for one another, the donors who give what they can, the staff who go the extra mile, and the countless quiet helpers who make our community stronger.

Kindness is in the unexpected gestures and the moments when we choose to show up for one another. Today, and every day, let's remember that one small act of kindness can create a ripple that reaches farther than we will ever know.

Let's keep spreading kindness, building connections, and showing what it means to be a community.

💛 It Takes a Community. It Starts with Kindness.

Day 11 of 30 Days of Thanks, we pause to honor the brave men and women who have served our country and express our heartfelt gratitude to the veterans in our community who have sacrificed so much in service to others. ❤️🤍💙

In observance of Veterans Day, MACSC is closed today. We will resume normal operations tomorrow (8AM to 4PM).

A special thank you to our very own MACSC veterans, Frank and Tom, along with our regular volunteer, Paul. Each has courageously served our country and continues to give back by serving our community. We are grateful for their service, dedication, and the difference they make every day. THANK YOU.

To ALL who have served, and to those who continue to serve, thank you. Today and every day, we are grateful.

Day 10 of 30 Days of Thanks That Give Back comes from our fantastic UPK Director, Clara: Thankful for Big Dreams !

Every big dream begins somewhere, and we’re so thankful that some of those beginnings happen right here at MACSC!

Did you know MACSC offers Universal Pre-Kindergarten (UPK) with wraparound care right on our campus? Our littlest learners fill the day with curiosity, questions, creativity, and plenty of discoveries - because sometimes the most exciting part of the day is finding an earthworm outside!

We’re grateful for our teachers who nurture curiosity, celebrate every milestone, & encourage big imaginations. The lessons learned here go far beyond the classroom. They’re about building confidence and discovering that learning can be an adventure.

Today, we’re thankful for the little learners who remind us that every day holds something new to discover, and that a little wonder can go a long way.

Big dreams start with little moments. And we’re so glad to be part of theirs!

Because at MACSC, it takes a community.

Day 8 of 30 Days of Thanks That Give Back – Thankful for a space that belongs to everyone.

There’s something special about a space that brings people together. We’re so thankful our Arts Center on the Hudson has become just that!

This space has been filled with dancers, art, music, resources, love, history, and joy. We’ve celebrated local creativity, gathered for special occasions, showcased incredible talents, and created opportunities for neighbors to connect. It’s more than a building. It’s a space filled creativity and community spirit. Thank you to everyone who has walked through our doors and helped bring it to life!
