The Rotating Art
Program connects artists with the community through a network
of revolving art exhibits. Local establishments, such as libraries,
banks and offices, serve as sponsors by providing a venue for
the exhibits. Sponsors choose artists to exhibit in their space
at the Artist Showcase every January.
Bacca
is planning its rotating art program for 2008 and is seeking artists
and business sponsors interested in developing partnerships throughout
the year. The program is designed to provide places of business
with different art work for display every 2 months. Bacca artists
bring and hang their work at the business site on the first day
of the month and retrieve it the last day of the second month.
Businesses are able to have 6 different exhibits in their offices
during the year. Artists are able to display their work at a new
venue every other month. This program has been popular for many
years with artists, businesses, libraries, government offices
and colleges. Community members often commend the program siting
their enjoyment of the artwork when visiting the various participating
establishments. An art showcase will take place on Tuesday, January
8th at the Babylon Town Hall Annex Cafeteria in North Babylon.
This is the time when artists display samples of their work. Businesses
select the artists whose work they would like exhibited in their
offices. Please contact bacca at 631-587-3696 if you are interested
in obtaining art for your business space or are an artist who
would like the opportunity to exhibit in local offices.
The Arts Council
provides affordable fine art instruction to adults and children,
ranging from beginner to advanced. Dance, creative writing and
poetry workshops are offered regularly for adults.
All registrations must
be received at the bacca office by the stated deadline prior to
the first class of every session.
