Original works in 2-D and 3-D in any medium (within certain size specifications), except for video and installation art, can be accommodated in the Art League’s spacious Jeanie Tengelsen Gallery.

Awards of excellence and honorable mentions will be determined by exhibition juror Ed McEvoy, Art League of Long Island director emeritus. 

Edward McEvoy is an award winning Long Island artist, painting instructor, former executive director of the Art League of Long Island, and a founding member of the Long Island Plein Air Painters Society. 

He has painted in Europe, Asia and throughout the eastern United States. Currently, most of his paintings are executed on Long Island. McEvoy works mostly with watercolors and occasionally with oils and acrylics. 

His paintings can be recognized for their colorfully loose and bold style. Usually Ed can be found painting boats in Huntington Harbor or with small groups of plein air painters throughout Long Island and the New England coast.
