Jackie Stevens is passionate about documenting and preserving the past by photographing abandoned buildings. She actively seeks and locates abandoned buildings capturing their history and importance. She feels connected to these sites as their history and mystery behind them are uncovered or rediscovered. Her determination comes from sharing these places and to display how we can learn from the past and change and improve our future. Her goal is to inspire and collaborate with artists to build a valuable platform where new and upcoming artists can seek advice and connect with experienced mentors. She has reached out to artists globally, and learned there is incredible talent all around us, who are willing to share. She hopes to bridge the gap and connect these people for meaningful and long lasting relationships full of creativity and inspiration. Jackie’s work has been shown in several Galleries through the country and Long Island. Her work, upcoming projects, and Gallery shows can be viewed at http://www.jackiestevens.zenfolio.com/
The Riverhead Town Hall art exhibits are a collaborative effort on the part of East End Arts and the Township of Riverhead to support local artists and introduce their works to the community.
