Long Island galleries swap space for exhibit

The Island Now

Members of The Art Guild and the Greater Port Jefferson Northern Brookhaven Arts Council will swap gallery space for the first Long Island Port-to-Port Art Exchange Exhibit through Sunday, Oct. 18. 

This unique joint exhibit not only opens opportunities for art lovers to see work from different communities, it allows artists from Nassau and Suffolk to connect with each other.

Art Guild members will exhibit their varied styles — from abstract and modern to the more traditional, from watercolor, oils, acrylic, and pastel, to mixed media, photography, and prints at The Port Jefferson Community Center, 101A Broadway, Port Jefferson. The gallery is open seven days a week from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.

The work of members of the Greater Port Jefferson-Northern Brookhaven Arts Council will be on exhibit at Elderfields Preserve, 200 Port Washington Blvd., Manhasset

This event is a signature event for Long Island Arts Alliance’s Arts Month in October, and is sponsored by Nassau County Department of Parks, Dick Blick Art Materials, and Fern & Hersh Cohen.

There will be two receptions at The Art Guild on Saturday, Oct. 10 from 3 to 5 p.m. and at Port Jefferson Village Center Sunday, Oct. 18 from 3 to 5 p.m.
