"The City, The Island & The Abstract"
Solo Photography Exhibition featuring Scott Farrell
Opening Reception
2:30 - 4:00 PM
At the North Shore Public Library, Shoreham
This solo photography exhibition by East End Arts member Scott Farrell runs March 2 through March 31, 2016 with this free opening reception. Library hours are Monday-Friday 9:30 AM - 9:00 PM, Saturday 9:30 AM - 5:00 PM, and Sunday 1:00 - 5:00 PM. Scott Farrell comments: "Each time I look through the viewfinder and capture an image, that particular moment in time, I can't help but wonder how photographers Dorothea Lange, Walker Evans, or Ansel Adams might have seen the frame. I also contemplate how painters Andrew Wyeth and Winslow Homer might have interpreted a particular scene with regard to texture, tone, composition and lighting. These influences are omnipresent as inspiration and fountainheads of my appreciation for the art of photography."

AMY HELM IN CONCERT
7:00 PM
At Hotel Indigo East End, Riverhead
Amy Helm's deep musical roots were enriched by a lifetime of exposure to the finest expressions of American musical tradition. Combined with her stunning vocal and other creative gifts, those roots have grown up to reveal a spellbinding artist who moves easily through a broad range of musical styles. The daughter of music legend Levon Helm and singer/songwriter Libby Titus Fagen, Helm wields a powerful voice that can both stir and soothe, whether she is singing traditional gospel, blues standards or her own heartfelt compositions. She is a gifted musician on both mandolin and drums, and has clearly absorbed the lessons of the many other accomplished artists with whom she has shared stages, including Mavis Staples, Emmylou Harris, and Joan Osborne as well as other uniquely American performers like Dr. John and Hubert Sumlin. Tickets start at $35:

 WSHU Public Radio launches a new station for Long Island listeners!
WSHU Public Radio is thrilled to announce the launch of 107.5 FM, an all-classical music station for Eastern Long Island listeners. The signal replaces 103.3 FM and can be heard from Riverhead to Montauk, and from Mattituck to Shelter Island. A hallmark of WSHU's classical music programming is the extensive knowledge of our on-air hosts. Wading River resident Lauren Rico, host of Afternoon Classical, is a former French horn player who is inspired by WSHU's passionate, committed listeners. Kate Remington, WSHU's Music Director and host of Morning Classical, received a degree in piano performance and mass communication from the University of Wisconsin. Before joining WSHU, she honed her considerable skills as a music announcer at Wisconsin Public Radio, the Beethoven Satellite Network, and Vermont Public Radio. So tune in for favorites by Beethoven, Mozart, Brahms and their colleagues, along with selections that are off the beaten path, and new releases and composers! To those listeners who love our NPR News and Talk format ... don't worry! You can still tune in to WSHU's 89.9 FM frequency for quality public radio programs.

OPEN CALL FOR ARTISTS: EEA's 5th Annual National Art Competition & Exhibition
Artists are invited to enter their most excellent artwork on any subject. This national show will be juried four separate times by four different jurors from the same pool of entries, and will result in four separate exhibitions. Guest jurors for this competition are:
The Gallerist: Peter Marcelle, Director, Gerald Peters Gallery, New York, NY; and Owner, Peter Marcelle Project, Southampton, NY;
The Artist: Eric Ernst, internationally renowned artist and columnist;
The Critic: Joyce Beckenstein, published art critique for NY Times & contributing editor to dozens of art periodicals; and
The Kid: A 12-year-old kid chosen by lottery.
The show chosen by Peter Marcelle, gallery owner, will be exhibited at the East End Arts Gallery. The other three shows will be viewable on individual monitors within the Gallery. All four shows with their chosen winners will be viewable on YouTube and on
EastEndArts.org.
East End Arts Gallery Director Jane Kirkwood encourages artists: "This is an incredible opportunity for artists to have their work viewed by three renowned names in the art world. To be noticed by one or more of these jurors could possibly result in future opportunities. We included 'the kid' to get the viewpoint of an art world 'innocent'. I can't wait to see what the jurors agree on-and where they diverge." This competition is open to any two-dimensional art. Artists must enter a minimum of three and a maximum of five works for the same entry fee of $45. Entries will be accepted through online entry form only.
Submission deadlines: April 5, 2016, with an extended deadline of April 12, 2016 (additional fee applies.) Exhibit dates are August 5 through September 21, 2016. 'Best in Show' winner will receive a seven-day stay in EEA Artist Residence near Hamptons' Museums and Galleries, plus $1,000 and inclusion in a group show at the at The Peter Marcelle Project, art gallery in Southampton NY.
