Founded in 1965 by local art enthusiasts, Gallery North is a not-for-profit gallery with a mission to present exhibitions of contemporary artists and craftspersons, to assist and encourage artists by bringing their work to the attention of the public, and to stimulate interest in the arts by presenting innovative, educational programs. Located in an 1800s farmhouse on a 2.5-acre campus within Setauket’s Historic District, the gallery has provided high-quality arts programming for the community for half a century, exposing visitors to a wide variety of art forms by artists of diverse backgrounds and approaches.
Gallery North also offers significant educational programming for children and adults in the Studio at Gallery North, a collaborative, 1500-square foot, open studio space for all members of the community to enjoy. The Studio features classes and workshops in a variety of mediums, including silkscreen and other printmaking processes, done in house on our printing press.
