selgasArt / Garrison Art Center

 OPENING (this) FRIDAY: WE TOOK THE SHOW ON THE ROAD! The impressive works from our talented high school students who participated in the 2021 Mentor Program will be on display at Mahopac Library April 2-26. This beautiful library sits on Lake Mahopac, and its large windows facing the lake, along with the 3rd floor exhibition make a visit worthwhile. Thank you Education Coordinator Kit Burke-Smith and all the artists and parents for transporting the work across county! This is a great opportunity to share this art and the work of Garrison Art Center with our neighbours to the east.
