This highly anticipated event honored patrons of the arts, <strong>Karen and Ed Adler<\/strong>, artist <strong>Stan Brodsky,<\/strong>and the memory of artist <strong>Ann Pellaton<\/strong>. Funds raised by the Fling go towards TAG\u2019s educational programming for children and adults, scholarships for high school students pursuing the visual arts and care and upkeep of their home at Nassau County\u2019s Elderfields Preserve in Manhasset.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt a time when art education programs are being reduced or cut out entirely, we are delighted and grateful to see so many people come out to support our honorees and our programming,\u201d said TAG\u2019s executive director, <strong>Lisa Kaye Grossman<\/strong>. \u201cThis support will help us continue to provide and expand our educational offerings and community outreach in 2019. We are looking forward to cultivating partnerships with other organizations and hope to provide scholarships for elementary students and workshops for disabled adults and children.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A Port Washington resident, <strong>Ann Pellaton\u00a0<\/strong>was a prolific artist who worked in a variety of media. Constantly experimenting, Ann created art until shortly before her death in September 2018. TAG\u2019s former executive director <strong>Diane Bares<\/strong>presented Ann\u2019s family with her award, saying that she was \u201cthe little lady with great talent, an infectious laugh and a zest for life. It is an honor to recognize Ann Pellaton, a woman of amazing talent who was loved by all.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As she presented Stan Brodsky\u2019s award,<strong>Ellen Hallie Schiff, <\/strong>vice president of TAG, spoke of his long career teaching and producing art. \u201cStan always encourages his students to look inward to find their particular artistic voice and helps them become more of the artist they want to be.&#8221;Stan is post-abstract expressionist whose extensive travels have influenced his work. He taught at C.W. Post campus of Long Island University for 31 years and was named professor emeritus of art. Now 93, Stan continues to teach and works from his studio in Huntington, NY.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Karen and Ed Adler\u00a0<\/strong>of Sands Point were presented their award by Village of Sands Point trustee <strong>Lynn Najman<\/strong>, who spoke of their love and support of many forms of the arts from painting to theatre. \u201cEd was chair and now a board member of Greenwich House, which brings art programs to schools. Karen and Ed are also proud to support local artists through the Port Washington Library gallery which bears their name.\u201d They are also supporters of City Center, Lincoln Center Theater, and the Manhattan Theatre Club.<\/p>\n<p>Proclamations and citations from <strong>Nassau County<\/strong>; <strong>Nassau County Legislator, Delia DeRiggi-Whitton<\/strong>; and <strong>NY State<\/strong><strong>Assemblyman, Tony D\u2019Urso\u00a0<\/strong>were also presented to the honorees.<\/p>\n<p>The lively evening featured dancing to one of Long Island\u2019s best bands The Touch, and silent auctions on over 40 pieces of art work by member artists and instructors. Other silent auctions included experiential opportunities and there was a myriad of raffle choices.<\/p>\n<p>The Art Guild would like to thank the honorees, all who attended, over 100 sponsors and donors, the hard-working committee members, staff, and volunteers, who helped to make the evening a great success. Sponsors of the festive evening included: Karen and Ed Adler, Marceil and John Kazickas, Ilene &amp; Steven Silberstein, Pam and Larry Tarica, Dr. &amp; Mrs. James M. Crawford, The Peter &amp; Jeri Dejana Family Foundation, Shelley and Jeff Holtzman, Amanda and Jon Coppola, Anne and Vincent Mai, Dina and Phillip Adsetts, Audrey and Russell Berman, Miriam and Robert Caslow, Ruth and Tony Chung, Douglas Elliman Real Estate, Susan Isaacs and Elkan Abramowitz, Hyman and Verna Livingston, Elin and Michael Nierenberg, Carol and Louis Schepp, Karen and Steven Seltzer, and Kay and Leo Ullman.<\/p>\n<p>The Art Guild is located at Nassau County&#8217;s Historic Elderfields Preserve, 200 Port Washington Blvd., Manhasset, NY 11030.
