Known originally as The Greenwich Society of Artists, our founders and pioneer members included many distinguished artists and art patrons. Our first president was Edward Clark Potter, sculptor of the lions at the New York Public Library. Early members were Leonard Ochtman, Elmer MacRae, George Wharton Edwards, J. Alden Twachtman (son of John Henry Twachtman) and others associated with the famous Cos Cob School, several of them leaders in the American Impressionist movement.
Exhibitions of the Society were held in the hilltop house donated to the town by Robert M. Bruce, when it became the Bruce Museum. In 1928 the prestigious Annual Members' Exhibition moved to the art gallery of the Greenwich Library.

RED HOOK ? NEW YORK ? read this email sent by KENTLER INTERNATIONAL DRAWING SPACE Robert Aitchison STATE OF EMERGENCY: PORTRAITS FROM THE PANDEMIC November 6 - December 12, 2021 Join us for the Opening Reception: Saturday, November 6, 4-6pm Artist's Talk: December 5, 4pm (Proof of Vaccine & Masks Required, observing pandemic precautions) Kentler International Drawing Space is pleased to present State of Emergency: Portraits from the Pandemic, a solo exhibition of new work on paper by Brooklyn-based artist Robert Aitchison.
