Barrett Art Center presents its exhibition Envisioning Dutchess on Friday, June 3, 2016, to celebrate its 80th Anniversary. The exhibition features local artists’ visions of Dutchess County. Envisioning Dutchess represents invited artists and community organizations' personal interpretations of Dutchess County through a variety of scenes and subjects. Director Joanna Frang notes, “With the artwork displayed together like quilt squares, you can really see how our diverse community can get in touch with the many diverse points of view – quite literally with their different visions of Dutchess hanging side by side.”
The opening reception will include a silent auction of the works of two past Barrett supporters, artists Lewis Rubenstein and Sam Rein.
Poughkeepsie Train Station, Sam Rein (1925-2007), will be offered at Silent Auction at the Opening Reception (courtesy Barrett Art Center), as well as an exhibition poster.
