Virtual Program: Artists of Long Island

Our wonderful Long Island has been a mecca for artists for centuries.  Art lecturer Mary Dono will explore many of these artists, art colonies, venues, and benefactors from the 19th through the 21st century. Each one of our artists brings a different style for us to appreciate. Register online at glencovelibrary.org or call the Library at (516) 676-2130.

The Zoom login information will be emailed to you before the program.

The North Shore Programming Consortium consists of five local libraries (Bayville, Glen Cove, Gold Coast, Locust Valley and Oyster Bay) that have come together to bring our patrons more of a variety in adult programming in a more cost effective way. We hope you enjoy the programs now accessible from the Consortium!  This program is hosted by the Glen Cove Public Library.

Virtual Program: Written in Stone: In-Depth Study of a Gravestone
Tuesday, September 19 at 7pm

Genealogists use gravestone information to document death information, but oftentimes, a burial marker provides more than biographical information. In this presentation, we will explore types of cemeteries, the anatomy of a marker, and the “hidden” information the marker provides.

This program is brought to you courtesy of the Genealogy Collective and is sponsored by the Glen Cove Public Library.

This program will be presented virtually via Zoom. The email entered at registration will be used to send the access information the day before or the morning of the program. If you do not receive the access information, please send an email to [email protected]  to have it resent.
