SUMMARY:New Village House Exhibitions
DESCRIPTION:Brand-new exhibitions in Village House will open on Saturday\, May 23rd – Memorial Day weekend. \n  \nHours: \nFridays\, 2pm to 5pm \nSaturdays\, 11am to 5pm \nSundays\, 2pm to 5pm \n  \nLOST OYSTERPONDS\nA collections of photographs depicting buildings that were once an integral part of the built environment of East Marion and Orient. Some structures were purposely torn down\, others lost to fire or hurricanes\, others simply moved to other places\, like the Orient Mill\, a beloved structure that was sold and moved by barge to an amusement park where it burned to the ground a dozen years later. \nCURLICUE WICKER FROM THE COLLECTION\nOHS is fortunate to have two pieces from the two most important wicker furniture manufacturers in America: a rocking chair made by The Wakefield Rattan Company\, and a baby carriage made by Heywood Brothers & Co. Several other pieces have no maker’s labels\, but they might have been made locally\, as the Greenport Rattan Company was flourishing at that period. \nCHILDREN’S VEHICLES\nThis exhibition is devoted to large toys: vehicles that children could ride in or on that could be self-propelled or pulled or pushed. An early tricycle and a painted sled are familiar to all\, but a goat cart and an Irish Mail less so. The goat cart was meant to pulled by the child’s pet goat\, or dog\, or pony – or perhaps a sibling. \nRECENT ACQUISITIONS\nThe past few years have been exceptional for the quality of the objects being donated to OHS. This year’s significant additions include three issues\, dating from 1812 and 1813\, of the Long-Island Star; our first 21st century Oysterponds quilt; a bust of Lincoln by Robert Berks\, and much more. \nABRAHAM G. D. TUTHILL\nThis exhibition celebrates the acquisition of two portraits painted by Abraham G.D. Tuthill\, the only 18th-century artist born in Oysterponds. OHS already owns two of his portraits. The handsome new portraits\, of an unidentified man and woman (undoubtedly husband and wife)\, date from the later part of his career. \nROBERT BERKS: THE MARY McLEOD BETHUNE MEMORIAL\nOrient denizen and nationally-known sculptor Robert Berks (1922-2011) specialized in creating large-scale\, monumental sculptures of major figures in American history. His creation of a memorial to Bethune\, the world-renowned educator\, civil rights leader\, women’s rights activist and presidential advisor\, was one of his more important commissions. \n  \nAdmission for OHS Members is free; admission charge is $10 per Non-member Adult. \n  \nStaff may be available Monday thru Friday to open the doors and give tours. If interested\, please call the office at 631-323-2480 for more information.
