#OneMartineGallery

Hop On Over to One Martine Gallery

In case you missed the Food For Thought Exhibition Opening last week, please join us at One Martine Gallery for the White Plains #SeriousFunArtsFest Gallery Hop this Thursday, October 13th from 6 to 9 pm.

Food For Thought is featuring 29 of my paintings and prints through Thanksgiving Weekend (Sunday, November 27th), along with the delectable artwork of Nancy Cohen and rich still life photography by Andre Baranowski. Three of my vending machine paintings are showcased in this window display – of which I am very proud! (I can’t help myself…).

Gallery hours are Tuesdays through Saturdays 10 to 6pm, Sundays 12-5pm, Closed Mondays.

I am very excited about this evening re-opening, which is easy to be now that I’ve seen the show.

Webmaster Laura says this is my best show yet (of course she’s a bit biased, but it’s fabulous to hear!). The spacious gallery has a contemporary Manhattan vibe. Plus the entire exhibit is beautifully designed by Walker Manzke, Director of One Martine Gallery. Thank you, Walker!

Invitation

Here’s is the official email invitation.

Plus Gallery Hop Night is FREE and includes a total of 3 gallery locations all within walking distance of each other, one of which is One Martine Gallery.

One Martine Gallery (located at 1 Martine Avenue), is a new gallery in downtown White Plains, New York, within walking distance of the White Plains train station. If you’re driving, see the parking directions at the bottom of this post.

In addition, the Gallery Hop is part of a much larger Serious Fun Arts Fest 5 Day event in White Plains running from October 12 to 16, sponsored by Arts Westchester and presented by Montefiore Einstein. Specifically, it includes everything from concerts to live mural painting, a public art walking tour to dancing in the streets. Click here for more information.

While the official Gallery Hop time is 6 to 9 pm, I will be there closer to 5:30pm to greet people coming directly from work.

Normal gallery hours are: Tuesdays through Saturdays 10 to 6pm, Sundays 12-5pm, Closed Mondays. Food For Thought runs through Thanksgiving weekend.

Parking and GPS Instructions

Since I got a lot of positive feedback from my previous parking instructions, I am repeating them again here.

One Martine Gallery (not to be confused with the apartment complex 1 Martine at City Square on your GPS device) is located on Martine Avenue, a one way street going south towards the White Plains train station. 

The parking garage entrance is just past the gallery as Martine starts to curve to the right towards Bank Street. You can see Seward Johnson’s statue of an embracing couple right before the driveway. See below for a photo and parking instructions provided by the gallery.

Finally, if you pass the entrance, don’t panic! Simply keep going around the block and try again. I found the entrance easily the second time – and that was without this photo. 

 Call (914) 948-1284 if you have any questions, or email info@onemartinegallery.com. 

Once you’re at the gallery, ask for directions to the concierge desk to validate your parking ticket for free parking.

Please let me know if you have any questions or need additional information.

I hope you can make it Thursday, October 13th for this fun event! We all need a lot more fun, don’t we?

Invitation to Food for Thought Opening October 6, 5:30-7:30pm

You are invited to the Opening Reception of a two woman show all about my favorite subject – food!

The exhibit features over 20 paintings and prints of my work, including my latest and largest vending paint, Food Choices.

Food for Thought opens on Thursday, October 6, 5:30-7:30pm, at One Martine Gallery (located at 1 Martine Avenue), a new gallery in White Plains, New York, within walking distance of the White Plains train station. If you’re driving, see the parking directions at the bottom of this post.

I like what is written in the official invitation below, “Food sustains our bodies as art sustains our soul.” So this is your big chance to get a lot of sustenance – not to mention a sugar fix! The show continues throughout October.
