The Parrish Art Museum in Water Mill presents the opening of its 2025 Student Exhibition, a cherished tradition for 72 years. This annual event, which will display the creativity of 1,000 young artists from nearly 50 Eastern Long Island schools from March 15 to April 27, also features student projects created with visiting artist Andrea Cote.
Casey Meyer, Senior Education Programs Manager at the Parrish, said, “The Student Exhibition unites the East End community as we come together to honor the creativity, imagination, and innovation of these young artists and their passionate teachers. Our goal is to provide young artists and their families with the time and space to showcase their work and celebrate the joy of creating. Every year, this exhibition sparks creativity and provides young students in our community a wonderful forum to exhibit their artistic talent.”
The exhibition begins with a preview day on Saturday, March 15. This special event invites Student Exhibition artists, their families, teachers, and the community to enjoy refreshments, live music, and the chance to experience the exhibition firsthand. From 11 AM to noon, there will be a gallery preview. From noon to 2 PM, there will be a Young Artists Preview, and from 2 to 4 PM, there will be the High School Artists Preview.
Admission to the previews is free, and light refreshments will be provided.
