Newburgh, NY -
Mount Saint Mary College invites the public to the 36th Annual
Artists on the Campus Outdoor Art Show and Sale which will be held
Sunday, June 5 from 11 a.m. to 5 pm (rain date June 12).
The Mount campus is located at 330 Powell Avenue, Newburgh,
NY.
The outdoor show will feature original paintings, prints,
drawings, photography and sculpture by numerous artists in the
region. No crafts will be displayed.
The public is also invited to view the Aquinas Gallery,
organized and sponsored by the Artists on the Campus committee. The
gallery features nine signed prints by Salvador Dali, from a
collection donated to the college in 1984.
During a 1963 visit to Mount Saint Mary College in Newburgh,
Dali presented his book DALI: A Study of his Art-in-Jewels, to
Mother Leo Vincent, OP, former Mount president. His flourishing
inscription reads Hommage de Dali, or with his respect. The
original signed book is housed in the college’s Curtin Memorial
Library.
