PAC MAC is BACK October 2-11, 2015!

The Patchogue Arts Council has launched an Indiegogo campaign to raise the funds needed for PAC MAC 2015 and we need your help. 

In 2014 PAC MAC was financed in part by a $25,000 Suffolk County Downtown Destination Grant. Due to changes in the criteria PAC MAC was not eligible for 2015... which means fundraising efforts are starting at $0.

Please consider making a donation and share this link everywhere to help make this year's PAC MAC a success!  We have a long way to go and a lot of money to raise.   https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/the-2015-pac-mac-festival-music-arts-cinema#/story

PAC MAC 2015 will once again unite the various artistic movements in Patchogue during a week long festival including gallery exhibits, outdoor sculpture, musical happenings, and cinema throughout the downtown. 

Thank you for your continued support, and we can't wait to see you there!

Hermitage Revealed The Hermitage Revealed
Saturday, July 11 at 10:30 AM & Thursday, July 16 at 6:30 PM 
 
Written and directed by Margy Kinmonth, The Hermitage Revealed is a superbly illustrated history that picks up the official guidebook and leads us from the building's inception under Catherine the Great to its latter-day re-branding as a mecca for devotees of art, architecture, and history. The film, which vividly limns the human stories behind one of the world's greatest art collections, was released in 2014 to celebrate the museum's 250th anniversary year to reveal the remarkable tales that have shaped its 250 year journey from Imperial Palace to State Museum.

*Optional at an additional charge following the screenings: Saturday Brunch catered from Goldberg's Famous Bagels. Top it off with a Mimosa, fine wine, or craft beer. Thursday Evening Cheese Platters are catered from The Cheese Patch. Pair with a fine wine or craft beer from Plaza's Blue Velvet Lounge
