Patchogue’s Winter Art Festival was a spectacular success. Thank you to all the Volunteers of the Patchogue Arts Council and the Patchogue Theatre for the Performing Arts. Hundreds of people showed up in the afternoon to enjoy the ceramic platters of Bill Shillalies exhibited in the Patchogue Theater Art Gallery. To take the Walking Arts Tour [Thank you Mary, Jess, Debra, Beth, Dawn, Sharon, and Chip for all your hard work] and to meet and view over 40 artist’s work exhibited in many locations around the Village At 3pm in the afternoon all enjoyed poetry lead by Michele Whittaker Chairperson of the Literary Arts Program of the Patchogue Arts Council. Michele did a fantastic job organizing the afternoon and having a large group of poets share a few samples of their work each.
