Spectacular Quilts On Display at Newark Museum

'Patchwork' showcases collection of folk art, fine art and global art.

Bring sunglasses -- some of the quilts and fabric works on exhibit now through Dec. 31 at the Newark Museum's spectacular new shows are almost blindingly dazzling.

Livingston Artists Make a Fine Showing

The 2011 Essex County Senior Citizens Juried Art Show provides venue for local talent.

DiVincenzo, Jr., awarded top prizes to 34 out of the 124 entrants. After a warm welcome and thanks, DiVencenzo (who noted, in his speech, that Angelo Casarola’s painting, “The Catch” chronicled last year’s winning Superbowl play,) went on to hand out first place, second place and Honorable Mentions to the contestants. Kate Hartwyk, Director of Programs and Grants for the Division of Cultural and …
