Distance Art Classes for Kids

April 26, 2020 By Piermont Library

The Dennis P. McHugh Piermont Public Library will offer a series of Distance Art Classes for students in grades 1 – 9 taught by Alexis Starke.  Although these classes are technically geared toward children, adults are more than welcome to join in too! 

At the moment, we are emailing lesson plans and posting the finished pieces on our social media so that the kids- and community- can see what each other are doing.  Students are welcome to ask for help or feedback via email, text, phone, etc.  We may add a video element at some point as well.  

Classes will cover a variety of materials and techniques in drawing, painting, design, sculpture, mixed media, collage, and printmaking. Inspiration will be taken from the greats of art history, contemporary artists, and our beautiful surroundings in Piermont on the Hudson River. Creativity will be developed in a supportive environment. And of course we always have fun!

To register, please email Alexis Starke at astarke@piermontlibrary.org

The Light in Ordinary Days: New Paintings by Dan Lukens

February 16, 2020 By Piermont Library

PLEASE NOTE: the opening reception for this exhibition has been postponed at this time due to the current public health concerns.

As the Library is closed indefinitely, please take a moment to check out our March artist, Piermont favorite, Dan Lukens via his website http://danlukensart.com/

For the month of March, the Dennis P. McHugh Piermont Library presents The Light in Ordinary Days: New Paintings by Dan Lukens. 


From the artist…..As Emerson wrote, “ Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us or we find it not.”
The best in our lives, I believe, resides in familiar things and often overlooked places. In a path well traveled, foliage changing with the season, or a face we know, there is a refuge in the sublime light in ordinary days.
Shared in these new paintings is an ode to local life and a homage to the ties we carry with us.
