Artist Member Sydell Glasser presents Views of the World: Opening Reception
2026-03-07 13:00 - 15:00 | Harborfields Library, 31 Broadway, Greenlawn, NY, 11740, United States
Views of the World is solo show of recent mixed media prints and paintings that have been completed by Sydell Glasser over the last eighteen months. The work will be on display at the Harborfields Public Library from March 3-29th, with an opening reception at the library on Saturday, March 7th from 1-3pm. The images in this exhibition mark a pivotal shift in Sydell Glasser’s approach to landscape. Her recent body of monotypes and paintings are constructed by adding textiles, found materials, and collage pieces from rejected prints into the final images. By blending natural references with emotional and tactile abstraction, Sydell’s work invites audiences to experience diverse environments not just as places, but as vessels for memory, identity, and wonder.
“Feeling a sense of awe and humility against the forces of nature has repeatedly given me a grounding sense of perspective, inspiration for my work, and is something I strive to share with my audience. The notion that nothing is permanent, that even the earth is moving beneath our feet, has allowed me to gain perspective while the world around me is rapidly changing. This recent body of work has become a personal narrative about the times of triumph and difficult times in my life. Through monotype and material experimentation, I seek to create prints that invite curiosity, contemplation, and a renewed way of seeing, offering moments of beauty and grounding.”

The works are executed in acrylic paint and reflect Carpaneda’s expressive and personal approach to portraiture.

Jan Guarino presents Fearless Watercolors Workshop on Amelia Island
2026-03-18 10:00 - 2026-03-19 17:00 | Island Art Association, 18N 2nd Street, Fernandina Beach, FL, United States
This program is a culmination of ideas I have discovered, techniques I’ve adapted from classes and workshops I have taken ~ it is my desire to interpret a subject matter to render it unique, fresh and worthy of being a painting. This medium is unique in the fact that it moves on its own which causes many artists to freeze up and begin to try to control the paint. This workshop shows you techniques that will allow you to feel free while holding onto detail, gain control, make corrections and have fun. Learn to trust your instincts with color and add contrast and allow blossoms, drips and splatters to work for you. You will also learn what makes a good photo to paint from to get the very best painting possible. I offer solutions and tools to try these techniques to integrate into your own artwork. Whether a beginner, someone who has painted in watercolors or more experienced, everyone can gain knowledge and techniques from this workshop.

Owned and operated by Sonny Meyerowitz, Sonny’s Place was a musical landmark from the 1970s through the 1990s. The small room welcomed jazz giants like Count Basie, Billy Eckstine, and Sarah Vaughan, while also nurturing the vibrant community of local musicians who helped shape Long Island’s jazz scene.
Decades later, its legacy still resonates.
Jazz at the Barn, inspired by the spirit of Sonny’s Place, continues that tradition of honoring jazz and the artists who keep it thriving. In partnership with the Cinema Arts Centre, this special event brings the history of Sonny’s Place back to life with the very musicians who were part of it.
Enjoy an unforgettable afternoon featuring:
Exclusive video screening – Short interviews with Sonny’s Place regulars including Jerry Weldon, Ron Aprea and more.
Live panel of jazz storytellers – With celebrated musicians Dave Lalama, Ralph Lalama, and Giacomo Gates sharing personal memories and insights into Sonny’s Place and Long Island’s jazz legacy.
Live performance – A special jazz set by the Dominick Duval Trio, bringing the spirit of Sonny’s Place to life on stage.
Join us for a rare gathering of jazz history, music, and memories.
Whether you remember Sonny’s Place or are discovering its legacy for the first time, this event promises an inspiring and unforgettable celebration of Long Island jazz.
