Thank you to everyone who joined us for PEACE Forward: Arts in Education + Partnerships = Possibility! 💙🎨

Over two incredible days, educators, artists, students, cultural partners, and community leaders came together to learn, share, create, and explore the power of arts education across Long Island.

Day Two brought the conversation beyond the classroom with a focus on Policy, Systems, Sustainability & Community Impact—from celebrating the educators, artists, students, and partners helping the PEACE Project grow, to conversations around advocacy, accessibility, social-emotional learning, and the future of arts-integrated education.

We are so grateful to every presenter, participant, partner, award recipient, student, and community member who shared their voice and helped make these two days so meaningful. The conference may be over, but we’re excited to keep moving PEACE Forward together. 💙✨

A special thank you to Holbein North America for supporting the PEACE Project and helping make this conference possible! 🫶

Patchogue is about to glow again! ✨MoCA L.I.ghts returns October 22–26 for its 7th year, transforming downtown Patchogue with projection art, live performances, historical projections, walking tours, an opening night opera and so much more.

💡Sponsoring MoCA L.I.ghts is more than supporting one of Patchogue’s most anticipated annual events. It’s an opportunity to put your business in front of the thousands of people who come downtown to experience it. Depending on sponsorship level, sponsors receive visibility through festival materials, maps, signage, digital promotion and more.

And you don’t have to be a major corporation to make an impact. Sponsorships begin at $50 because your help, big and small, helps us illuminate Patchogue and continue bringing this FREE, immersive public arts experience to our community!

A creative exchange from Scotland to Patchogue! 🤩 This year PAC had the pleasure of hosting Edinburgh Napier University students Erin Mackay and Nadia Russell from Product Design, along with Graphic Design student Joanne Griffin, for a mini internship. Throughout their time with us, the students worked on real world projects, gaining hands on experience while creating work they can carry into their professional portfolios.

The visit is part of an ongoing relationship between Edinburgh Napier University and Farmingdale State College, with reciprocal student exchanges taking place since 2017.

A huge thank you to Tom Flint, Associate Professor in the School of Arts & Creative Industries at Edinburgh Napier University, Beth Giacummo & Brian O’Keefe of Farmingdale State College Visual Communications for continuing to make opportunities like this possible.

A special thank you to our local hosts
Pete Cotter and Jen Brady Cotter 💙

Erin, Nadia and Joanne we adored spending time with you this summer and can’t wait to see your creativity at work! 😉
