Exhibition: 'The Column Rule: Rockland in Photographs and Words'

Spend time in the HSRC's William H. Hand Gallery as we enjoy the photographs and words of Arthur H. Gunther 3rd, author of the 'The Column Rule' and long-time Journal News Editorial Page Editor. Art's wonderful offering 'The Column Rule' spoke about the Rockland past and present that we knew. Through excerpts from Art's columns and sharing the photographs that he took to accompany them, we invite you to come and reminisce about the Rockland Art knew so very well and shares so beautifully with us.

Co-Curated by Joanne Potanovic and Arthur H. Gunther 3rd - winner of the 2010 ACOR County Executive's Art Award for Visual Artist of the Year!
