New ArtsWestchester Exhibit Showcases Westchester Artists
Artwork by 22 Area Artists on Display in Downtown White Plains Gallery
The breadth and diversity of the Lower Hudson Valley’s cultural landscape will be on display at ArtsWestchester’s new group exhibition starting Sunday, April 14.
The Open Call exhibition features 22 area artists who represent a thriving art scene. One standout artist to watch is Elizabeth Diaz, recipient of the prestigious Larry Salley Photography Award for 2024. Diaz's captivating photographs of members of Yonkers’ trans community shed light on a social group that is often invisible to the general public.
“This exhibition is part of ArtsWestchester's Arts Exchange series, which aims to promote and support local artists by providing them with a platform to showcase their work,” said Kathleen Reckling, ArtsWestchester’s COO. “We are committed to nurturing artistic talent and fostering a vibrant arts community.”

Among the various styles, Petricone’s artistic process begins by drawing from print images and progresses with deliberate painting and meticulous attention to detail, edges, lines, and the mixing of colors. Khorover’s art practice stems from a need to create beauty from that which has been discarded.
The opening reception is from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. on April 14. The event will be an opportunity for art lovers to mingle with the artists and immerse themselves in the beauty and creativity on display.
The exhibition runs through May 26. ArtsWestchester is located at 31 Mamaroneck Ave. in White
Plains. Open Call is sponsored by Etain and Westchester Magazine.
