I feel fortunate to have such a gem of an arts appreciation organization so close to me. I used to go to the Rye Arts Center solely for my children's activities -- they have a plethora of outstanding courses ranging from music to art to theater in the summer. My children took piano lessons, cartooning, photography, Minecraft, basic programming, and summer theater productions that included Mary Poppins and Matilda. As I've learned more about the Rye Arts Center, I have been going more often than even my children. I have attended cultural music concerts and comedy nights. I've gone on tours of local art galleries organized by the Rye Arts Center. In addition, I've loved the exhibits at the Rye Arts Center. Who could forget the Irving Harper collection? And most recently, I loved the Nenne Sanguineti Pogge exhibit. As much as I love all the concerts, performances, and productions in NYC, it's so logistically easy to have great family and adult programming available here in Westchester County without all the train hassle.
