At the turn of the 20th Century, artists were drawn to the East End for its light and beauty. The early painters were Irving Ramsay Wiles and Edith and Henry Prellwitz. Some other notable North Fork artists included Caroline M. Bell, Julia Wickham, Whitney M. Hubbard, and Otto Joseph Kurth. The painters not only painted en plein air, but also painted still lifes, portraits, and genre art. A century later, artists are still coming to the East End to paint. This exhibit will feature the Peconic Bay Artists of the 21st Century.

Artists are invited to submit up to 3 works which measure 10” x 10”. All mediums are accepted.

This is a wonderful opportunity to purchase artwork by local artist. Since the exhibit and sale is not juried, the variety of motifs is sure to offer something for everyone. All purchases are through the Museum’s website, www.southoldhistorical.org.
