QUOTE FROM Mayor Paul Pontieri, Jr: “As
Mayor of the Village of Patchogue, I congratulate The
Patchogue Arts Council on this their first Biennial
exhibition. Over the last 10 years the Patchogue Theater
for the Performing Arts has with the support of the
Village become a premier destination on the South Shore
and has contributed to the renaissance that is currently
taking place. I am pleased that in the same way, we now
lend our full support to The Patchogue Arts Council and
their efforts to bring fine visual art to the greater
south shore community.” |
