The Great Neck Library in New York will host an exhibition of paintings by artist Rosemary Wilson Sloggatt titled "Among Children 2026: Paintings and Portraits by Rosemary Wilson Sloggatt" from June 1 to June 30. The show includes a Kids' Reception on June 3 and an Artist Reception on June 20. Sloggatt, who studied at Parsons School of Design and Otis Art Institute, has taught art in the Great Neck Public Schools for over 25 years.
The exhibition matters because it highlights the work of a long-time local art educator whose series "Among Children" reflects three decades of teaching and a lifelong engagement with youth. The show provides the community an opportunity to connect with art that captures childhood's immediacy and wonder, reinforcing the library's role as a cultural hub in Great Neck.
