The Art League of Long Island started out in 1955 with a group of dedicated artists who wanted to connect with one another and bring the joy of the visual arts to the surrounding area of Huntington and eventually to the rest of Long Island. It succeeded and moved forward in those early days through the efforts of dedicated artists and art lovers who selflessly gave of their time. In 55 years, not that much has changed. As a non-profit organization, we continue to need the support of volunteers to keep this worthwhile entity operating and serving the needs of the men, women, and children of Long Island.

The Art League serves the community is so many ways. The Art League offers about 200 art classes and workshops from beginner through advanced level. Lectures and museum tours educate and invigorate those who wish to learn more and see more of the arts. The Jeanie Tengelsen Gallery plays host to almost a dozen art exhibits each year showcasing works of artists near and far. The Art in the Park Fine Art & Craft Fair has been a favorite of Long Islanders since the late 1960’s. The Holiday Fine Art & Craft Fair has brought many the gift of art for more than 46 years. The Art League works with local schools in exposing young minds to the appreciation of art. Special needs children come together to feel or see and explore at workshops carefully designed to bring out the artist in all of them.

We need your help whether it is assisting in the classroom, assisting in the gallery, helping out at the arts and crafts fairs, assisting in the front office, or through your time distributing literature at your favorite places.

Discounts on membership and classes are available to volunteers.
