2020 Virtual Art Exhibit
In the new normal post pandemic times, we strive to make the very best from our sheltering in homes. Several artists continued with their tasks of creating imaginative pieces that reflect their sentiments, and clamor for a happy escape outside of the Covid-19 world. Surreal or not, these art works have saved what seemed to be endless days and months of prolonged quarantine, as we joyfully paint inside our own virtual reality, and occasionally braved the open fields and farms.
The Artists
Our seasoned artists came from all disciplines, using a variety of techniques and media they have developed through years of engaging in their craft. Take the time to meet each one, visit their video and website links, get up close to their meaningful projects, latest endeavor and charitable mission.
About Us
If you missed our 2019 exhibit held at the Philippine Center, here's the chance to catch up with everybody. Our guests from the community have developed a camaraderie with our artists after years of exhibiting at the same venue. This year may have been different, but expect to meet the same folks during our Virtual Exhibit.
Photo Gallery
See the other events and activities our artists have accomplished as small groups. Aside from the annual get-together shows, our artists hold meet up groups for plein air painting in and around New York's Central Park, weekend painting sessions at home and leaf peeping during the autumn season. Our artists reach various areas upstate New York and around the globe discovering hidden gems too amazing not to be shared with you.
