This show is named for Elizabeth Richard, the
first Executive Director of East End Arts, founded in 1972.
Among the initiatives that East End Arts started when it was
first founded was a signature program by Elizabeth Richard
called Art Train. East End Arts is grateful for all that
Elizabeth Richard did during her tenure, laying the
groundwork for the work that the organization does today.
This show is one of seven art shows of 2017
at the East End Arts Gallery, under the umbrella theme
“Elements of Style”. The complete 2017 Gallery Schedule,
including all calls for artists can be viewed at

This show is sponsored by the family of

possible with public funding provided by New York State
Council of the Arts, Suffolk County, and the Town of
Riverhead.
