Last Chance: Art After Dark

The party starts when the sun goes down at the  in Dix Hills tonight.

Once a month, the gallery leaves its doors open from 7-9 p.m. for its Art After Dark event, a captivating evening of cultural enrichment.

Art, music, wine and cheese set the tone for this sophisticated and stimulating evening, but tonight is your last chance to experience it until next month.

The event is a series of special art exhibits with demonstrations by well-known local artists.

Tonight's demonstrating artist is Stephanie Navon Jacobson.

According to the Art League, printmaking has always been Jacobson's first love.

"I tend to think in terms of printmaking first—monotype, etching, woodcut, silkscreen, lithography, xerox transfer. Often, I layer my work, mixing a silkscreen with a woodcut, monotype, solarplate or drawing. The possibilities in printmaking today are virtually endless, and that keeps me energized and excited," she told the Art League.
