My love of art led me to a studio.

The studio led me to a gallery.

When presented with this endeavor,

I asked myself, what would it satisfy in me?

 What is my goal, here?

It became clear right away.

To help propagate the arts in my town

and its' surrounding environs.

To regenerate interest in all things art, Nyack, rife with artists,

many honing their craft outside of town,

many not having the window to express

their own special talents. Art can be personal and individual in its' creation

but can also be enjoyed when opened to others.

This is my mission.

To honor each artists' single expression,

and bring it out for all to share.

- Ray Lagstein
