During the Opening Reception, we will set aside time to listen to Long Island’s own, actor/orator Stuart Whelan, read a selection of John McKinney’s columns. The most touching column being the tribute to Joe he wrote shortly after his dear friend’s death in 2004. John passed away in 2009. 

In keeping with all things local, we will be celebrating Leah Dunaief and the upcoming *50th Anniversary* of our local paper, The Village Times Herald of TBR News Media, which she founded in 1976. The publication’s fifty year history will be showcased as a sub-exhibit in the center’s Englebright Gallery throughout the duration of Renderings & Reflections.
