"Painters of Long Island's North Fork"

Community Church of East Williston
located on the NW corner of Roslyn Road and Hillside Avenue (Rt. 25B)
East Williston, New York

Artists have lived and worked on the North Fork since the 18th century. The "Peconic colony" included such artists as Benjamin Fitz, Edward Bell, Irving Wiles, Henry and Edith Prellwitz, and many others. Our speaker, Geoffrey Fleming, is the co-author of the widely acclaimed book, A Shared Aesthetic: Painters of Long Island's North Fork. As Amei Wallach concluded in her Foreword to the book, the landscapes and other paintings of these artists celebrate "a place, a history, and a way of living and making art." Learn about the artists and their paintings in this illustrated presentation.
