ANNUAL JURIED MEMBERS EXHIBITION 

Patchogue Arts Gallery
20 Terry St., Patchogue, NY
Opening Reception: July 12 from 5:00-7:00 PM

This exhibition highlights the many talents of the Patchogue Arts Council's members, exhibiting a mixture of painting, sculpture, photography, and more. 2014 marks the third year PAC has held an exhibition exclusively for its members at the Patchogue Arts Gallery.

This Wednesday at 6:30 PM

This week we will be sketching at Shorefront Park on Smith Street in Patchogue.  It's the park where the bandshell is....for those not familar, you can get to it by going down to the ends of South Ocean Ave, Rider Ave or Bay Ave.

There is a parking lot.  If it rains, you can sketch from your car.  You can sketch the bandshell, the setting sun or the many other views around you.  You might want to consider bug spray and a chair.

This Wed at 6:30 pm

We are going to meet this week in Sayville down by the water where if it's nice, we can sit out and sketch or have the option to sketch from our cars if it's chilly.

You need to take S Main St/Middle Road to Seaman Road. Follow Seaman Road South to Brown's River Road, which should be the 2nd road on your right. Take that to the the end until you reach the waterfront and we will be sketching there. It's a good location for either sketching from the car or out in the open.

This Wednesday (Times Below)

Folks, 

there are two sketch gatherings you can attend this week.  One Bill brought to us a few weeks ago that looks to be a great time and I will post that below.  I wanted to go to the Northport event but South Bay Art is having their June meeting and a few of us have to attend the meeting as we are board members/chairing an event for them.  I am running the Plein AIr Event so I need to be at the meeting to speak about it.  The guest speaker for the meeting is Anna Jurinich and she will speak about the publishing process, the illustration of books, and the healing nature of art as well as her recently published book.

I thought they were done for the meetings for the summer but apparently not.

If you want to come to the South Bay Meeting and sketch, the meeting is at the Bellport Community Center on 4 Bell Street, in Bellport at 7:15

If you want to go out the the event in Northport, here's the info at that:

Northport on Wednesday night June 25th form 6:30 to 10:00...

This Wednesday at 6:30 PM

This week we will be assembling at the end of Blue Point Avenue in Blue Point NY.  There is a dock area/ beach and people fishing that make good subjects.  Off to the side, there are a few homes that we have sketched before that have some nice gardens in the front.

Hope to see you there.

This week at 6:30PM

Folks, 

it looks like it supposed to rain this week.  I am scheduling us to sketch at the Roast Coffee and Tea company on Main street in Patchogue.  If it's raining, you can sketch in there, if it is not, there are plenty of store fronts and a Church that make for great sketching.  Just bring a chair if you want to sketch outside.

This Wednesday at 6:30 PM

Rain or shine, we are going to be sketching at the Flo's in Blue Point.  If it rains, we can sketch from our cars down by Corey Beach which is 1 block down from Flo's, Flo's stays open during thunderstorms but will close down if the evening is washed out.   For those more interested in scenic pursuits, there is a marina, beach, bay scenery and such down at Corey Beach.

Flo's is located at:

301 Middle Road, Blue Point NY or you can pull up Corey Beach for directions as well.
