2023 Annual Exhibitions Opening Reception
June 24, 2023 @ 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm
This year’s Annual Exhibition, The Sketchbooks of Charlie Ferguson, complemented by two special exhibitions, showcases Charlie’s spontaneous drawings and watercolors, as well as daily notes and natural history observations, spanning a period from the mid-1970s to mid-2010s.
The other two exhibits are Early Photographs of Fishers Island and Early Paintings of Fishers Island. Framed prints of the featured iconic photographs will be available for purchase, with proceeds supporting the Museum’s Art Fund.
Join us this Saturday, June 24th, 5 to 7 PM for our opening party.
ALL ARE WELCOME!
Refreshments will be served on the deck, weather permitting, or inside, if need be.
