LIVINGSTON MANOR, NY — The Catskill Art Society (CAS) will present the artwork of Cynthia Strunsky McLean in “Piece Together Peace,” an exhibition in the new Elevator Gallery, running from Friday, February 13 to Sunday, March 29, at the CAS Arts Center at 48 Main St. There will be a free opening reception for the exhibit on Friday, February 13 from 4 to 6 p.m. Tasty tidbits prepared by Bethel Market Café will be served.

Experience a hands-on, interactive exhibit where you remix artwork that must evolve and mutate to reflect our rapidly changing world. All viewers participate as curators of this painted puzzle of the human condition.

The Elevator Gallery is an experimental exhibition space that will feature small works, installations, short art films and other visual curiosities in six shows each year. At about six by 13 feet, the space will eventually make way for an elevator to CAS’s second floor when renovations are finished.

Funding for CAS is provided in part by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Gov. Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature.

Gallery hours are Thursday to Saturday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., Sunday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. and Monday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.
