Patrons are invited to meet our October artist, Arthur Backstrom, at a closing reception for his photography exhibit. Art is a photographer who was born and raised on Staten Island, the busiest port in the world. He is an ex-merchant seaman and the son of a merchant seaman. As an artist, he naturally gravitates towards ships and the sea. He has been a devoted photographer for the last 21 years, specializing in fine photos from film captured with manual cameras. His work has been featured at ArtSpace Hartford, Open Studio Hartford, 100 Pearl Street Gallery, and the Staten Island Museum Fence Show.
This exhibit will be on display October 3rd – October 31st.
An artist’s reception open to the public will be held on Saturday, October 28th from 2:00 pm until 4:00 pm. Light refreshments will be served – all are invited to stop in!
