For 50 years, the vision and passion of Five Towns College founders and educators, Stanley and Lorraine Cohen, continue to be realized in the work of young filmmakers, musicians, visual and performing artists.
Known as Long Island’s College for Creative Students, the college promotes and celebrates purposeful and effectual art from diverse perspectives, and is pleased to expand its reach to the community.
To honor the work of both Five Towns College and Long Island high school students, the college is pleased to host The Long Island Media Arts Show. The Juried Exhibition will include work in Film, Photography, 2D Digital Art, and Animation. Student filmmakers and artists from the college and community are encouraged to push their creativity and skills to new levels, and submit work to be considered.
Artists and filmmakers who have submitted their artwork in the Long Island Media Arts Show are invited to the Long Island Media Arts Show | Conference where artists work will be exhibited in the Five Towns College Gallery and screened in the Five Towns College Performing Arts Center Theater. The Conference also features demonstrations and workshops with industry professionals.
An Opening Reception and Awards Ceremony, in conjunction with the FTC Luminaries Awards presentations, will celebrate the accomplishments of student artists and filmmakers. Five Towns College invites family, friends, educators, and patrons of the arts to attend.
The event promises to be a true manifestation of talent, creativity, and artistic energy.
