"Artists On The Lane" is the annual July 4th Art Show produced by the South Bay Art Association. This is one of the largest outdoor art shows on Long Island and draws artists from all over the country. The show is devoted to fine art, displayed along the sidewalks of lovely Bellport Lane, all the way down to the Bay. The weather is almost always cooperative, and many other Holiday festivities are also scheduled for this National Holiday.

The Bellport Garden Club offers delicious refreshments: homemade quiches and sandwiches, baked goods and beverages. Refreshments are available on the grounds of the Bellport Historical Society, which is also located on Bellport Lane.

The Show begins at noon, and a Raffle of Fine Art is held at 4 pm at the Village Hall- tickets are sold throughout the day and several lucky winners receive a piece of original fine art that has been donated by our local artists. Proceeds of the raffle sales benefit South Bay Art Association's Student Scholarship Fund.

Come on down for a great day of Art and America on the Fourth of July in Bellport!

 

The SBAA Does It Again! Artists On The Lane 2008

Artists On The Lane is one of the largest outdoor art shows on Long Island and draws artists from all over the country. The show is devoted to fine art, displayed along the sidewalks of Bellport Lane, all the way down to the Bay. The weather was overcast on July 4th, but the rain held off and everyone had a wonderful time.



Tom D'Angelis, President of the SBAA, couldn't have been happier with the turnout and the quality of the artwork being shown.








Porters, the great new restaurant in town at the head of Bellport Lane, was hopping all day long.








We'll bet you didn't know that Jimmy Vaughan is a great wildlife photographer! How about sending some of your work into Bellport.com Jimmy so that we can share it with everyone???






Everywhere you looked there were pieces of art from very small to very large. There was something to fit everyone's budget.








Carla Marla's Ice Cream Parlor was the perfect place to stop for an ice cream cone and a few minutes of rest before you continued "the hunt!"







Kathryn Herzy has been exhibiting her great watercolor artwork at Artists On The Lane for 30 years! Tom D'Angelis introduced us to Kathryn and we left with one of her wonder Great South Bay Scooter watercolors.






As usual, the Garden Club was selling lunch and drinks to the visitors to Artists On The Lane. The Garden Club has the permission of the Historical Society to set up on their grounds.  All of the money made from the sale of food goes into the Beautification Fund which buys trees for the Village of Bellport. Everyone enjoys a few minutes break to relax and enjoy a bite.






The Garden Club helped out again this year, as they always do, and had examples of their accomplishments available for sale.
