Description

The exhibition, “Art Teachers’ Choice” was guest curated by members of the North Country Art Teachers Association, who selected a compelling line-up of oil paintings, ink washes, watercolors, drawings, and sketches by Frederic Remington. The artworks will be displayed in the Museum’s Addie P. Newell Gallery, accompanied by comments by the art teachers on the artworks they selected. The Museum celebrates the opening of this exhibition with a free, public reception on Friday, August 13 from 5:00 to 8:00 pm. There will be remarks about the exhibition at 6:00 pm. Everyone is welcome to come to the reception, talk with the guest curators, and view the artworks. To amplify the celebration, the opening reception coincides with Night at the Museum, an evening of art, live music, and delicious food. Gary Waltz—Heavy Mellow Guitar will provide guests with live music in the Eleanor Vilas McNally Courtyard. Guests can also enjoy dinner, a drink and something sweet outside while listening to the music. The St. Lawrence Sandwich Co. and Kench's Ice Cream food trucks are scheduled to park on the Museum property for the event. The St. Lawrence Sandwich Co. will offer a variety of sandwiches, salads and beverages, and Kench's Ice Cream will have an assortment of frozen treats. Hosmer’s Marina will provide a cash bar, located inside the Museum, during the event.
