PARKS & REPRESENTATIONS: WEST SIDE ARTS COALITION AND THE PARKS, MONUMENTS AND MALLS OF NEW YORK CITY
West
Side Arts Coalition (WSAC) presents "Parks, Monuments
& Malls of New York City." Parks scenes and personal
moments are captured in the artists' renderings inspired
by well known sites in Central Park and secret nooks
and crannies that the artists discovered for themselves
in other parks.
The exhibiting artists are members
of WSAC, an organization founded in 1979 as a support
group for neighborhood artists. WSAC operates out
of a Parks & 
Recreation
facility, The Broadway Mall Community Center, on the
Broadway Malls at 96th Street. For over 20 years,
they have used that space to present exhibitions of
fine arts, craft arts and photography, as well as
monthly poetry readings. This group exhibit of 26
diverse artists explores their unique view of New
York City's Parks and how it is translated into beautiful
works of art.
