Dear friends and members,

We are looking forward to welcoming you to our Annual Summer Open House, which will be held on August 24th from 11am-2pm.  Save the date, stop by, see demonstrations throughout the afternoon, and visit the Instructors Exhibition Opening at the same time!  This is really your time to explore the Art League of Long Island and see that instructor whose class you’ve always wanted to take in action, or to stroll among their best pieces in the Jeanie Tengelsen Gallery.  Wondering how to begin your journey in pastels?  Curious about what classes we offer for your young artist?  Need to know what Atelier drawing entails?  Interested in trying your hand in ceramics?  Learn how and more while at our Open House.

Join us in our Try Night event on  August 16th.  You can learn something new in either printmaking & ceramics or jewelry making & collage and enjoy some treats in between.  This is a perfect date night or night out with your friends.  You can purchase your tickets here.

Help us celebrate our 70th anniversary in 2025!  Today, we launch our Anniversary Logo Contest!  Details can be found on our social media platforms today with a separate mailing to your inbox tomorrow.

Join us for our fall schedule of classes!  Starting on September 10th, look for morning, afternoon and evening classes for everyone, including regular times on Wednesdays.  See our complete list of fall classes here.

And finally, make sure to keep your membership current and donate to the Art League today.  As we continue to rebound from the flood and reconstruction, we truly need your membership dollars to help support our general operating costs.  We can’t do it without your support.  Push the button.

Sincerely,
Marianne Della Croce
Executive Director

Dear friends,

As we begin to look for ways to keep cool this summer, remember there are plenty of opportunities to do so right here at the Art League of Long Island.

We have a plethora of new workshops and classes happening this summer from Smart Phone Photography to Printmaking.  There’s always an opportunity to learn a new skill and try a new medium.

Join us in the return of the Try-Night Experience, Friday, August 16th from 6-9pm.  You have a choice between two 60 minute experiences – Printmaking & Ceramics or Jewelry-Making & Collage with refreshments!  It is perfect for a Friday date night or to literally try your hands at something new!  You can purchase tickets here.

Interested in seeing more demonstrations?  Our Annual Summer Open House will be held on August 24th from 11am-2pm.  Save the date, stop by, and see multiple demos throughout the afternoon and visit the Instructors Exhibition Opening at the same time!

Consider applying to become a Resident Artist.  Established in 2018, this program is designed to provide a select group of Long Island based artists with skill-building and community based opportunities to further develop their careers in the visual arts.  Our application is now open for the 2024-2025 program.  Click here to apply – it is open to anyone and everyone!

Volunteer with us!  We are always looking for help in the gallery, for demos at special events, and in the office.  Active volunteers can receive a free membership, a complimentary class, and tickets to special events based on their amount of volunteer hours.  Click here for more information and to download the application  and let us know how you’d like to help!

And finally, make sure to keep your membership current and donate to the Art League today.   We cannot do it without your support.

Sincerely,
Marianne Della Croce
