South Shore Artists Group of Staten Island - Artists Reception
Group Show for the South Shore Artists Group
Coming to our art gallery in April 2008 is a group
show for the South Shore Artists Group. The South Shore Artists Group has
displayed their art works in various venues around Staten Island including the
Snug Harbor show in September. The group co-sponsors the Annual Conference House
show held on the first Sunday in June. This June 2008 is their 43rd year. This
talented group of artists includes our March artist Antonio De Santis as well as
other notable members.
Recently members of the Staten Island Artists Group at the request of
Tony De Fazio a member of the Federated Garden Clubs of Staten Island painted
scenes of the Healing Garden, Concord 9/11 memorial. These paintings
were then auctioned off to raise funds for the Healing Garden
A selection of two or three best work from each member participating in
the show will
be selected for display and sale in the art gallery. We anticipate a collection
of 40 - 50 original and unique pieces of art.
An opening reception will be held on Sunday April 6th
2008 beginning at 11:00am and lasting until 5:00pm. The all day reception is a
family oriented event and open to the general public. Coffee and
refreshments will be served. We hope you will be
able to join us for the show's opening event. Participating member's art will
remain on display and can be seen any time throughout the month of April.
We look forward to seeing you in the gallery.
Hidden Talent Art And Framing welcomes the members of
the South Shore Artist Group to our gallery and supports their efforts. We
wish them a successful show.
A little background on the South Shore Artists Group
The South Shore Artists Group was founded in 1946 by Thea Wilbur Olsen making it one of the oldest artist associations on Staten Island. The first meeting was held at the old Richmond Memorial Hospital. The original gathering of artists from all over Staten Island was to raise money for the hospital. Their paintings were exhibited in the hospital lobby. Soon the members were meeting every Tuesday for sketching field trips, museum visits, and other activities related to developing skills and appreciation of fine art. The group's association with the hospital lasted many years. Eventually the group's meeting place moved to The Staten Island Historical Museum in Richmond Town then onto the Masonic Temple in Great kills and currently every Tuesday at St. Albans Episcopal Church Eltingville.
