The Award Ceremony |
It took place at various places around Oyster Bay: Children displayed their work at Not Just Art, Adults took over Audrey Avenue near the bandstand, the Award Ceremony took place the at the Artist Club Gallery.
We at Think Long Island First had the pleasure to host the Young Adult (Ages 12 - 17) competition. We have enjoyed it tremendously. It was gratifying to see the audience's immediate response to the artwork on display.
There was a good number of entries for the first year of the show. Susie Gach Peelle, painter and art teacher who judged the Young Adult competition, commented, "nice cross-section of work and media for such a small show."
