The Huntington Station Paint In continues

As mentioned in The Long-Islander and Newsday, Huntington Station is getting known for its artists.
This Sunday looks be sunny and near 60, so grab your easel, sketch pad, camera, journal, whatever your medium (and don’t forget your artistic friends) and head on down to New York Avenue (set up anywhere between East 19th and Olive Streets) to “let the art be seen.” Huntington Station is home to a vibrant art community, let people know about it!
This is an open invitation, call-to-action for all artists every weekend through spring and summer. Leave your name and number at Pixelstick Gallery (at The Artists in the Attic upstairs in the Yankee Peddler Building at 1038 NY Ave) if you create a piece that you would like to have considered for a juried show at the end of the summer, location to be announced.
The Avenue is our community: love it, embrace it…paint it!


A weekend of Art & Antiques on the Avenue
Start off your weekend with another First Friday event on April 3 from 5-8pm at The Artists in the Attic (www.artistsintheattic.blogspot.com/). See the work of 12 amazing artists and hear the alt-folk sounds of Compass Rose on their return engagement.
As an added bonus, the antique dealers at Yankee Peddler will be joining the artists in spirit by holding their first “First Saturday Flea Market” on Saturday, April 4 from 9am – 4 pm in their back parking lot... take a break and look for some bargains!
And the finishing stroke of this weekend community trifecta will take place on Sunday, April 5, noon til the light leaves as local artists come out for the Huntington Station “Paint In” all along New York Avenue.
Art & Antiques on the Avenue….perfect!
