Glimpses of New Castle’s Past: Preview Party

Join the New Castle Historical Society at this Preview Part for their new exhibition Glimpses of New Castle. The exhibit features many local artists, most notably James Renwick Thompson a watercolor painter who was also the architect who designed the Robert E. Bell School and many local homes. And W. Stuart Archibald who chose opaque colors to create a series of building portraits.

Favorite subjects of several artists include the former Sutton Farm, the Quaker Meetinghouse, and the Memorial Day parade. Louis Raymond captured the spirit of local events such as the first Community Day and the Garden Club flower show. One of the most dramatic works is an aerial view of Chappaqua Village in winter by illustrator Kenneth Fagg.

The exhibition will open to the public on Saturday, April 20 and run through Saturday, July 20. The Exhibition is open to the public on Wednesdays and Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
