Tales from the Firefly: A Simple Guy. Plus, Find us in Sunday’s Newsday!

We’ve been talking about sharing some of the stories that walk into our gallery and warm our hearts. Figured we’d start with this one…Plus, check out the link below and pick up Sunday’s Newsday for great tips on visiting galleries! 

A Guy Walks into a Gallery

A guy walks in. Looks like maybe he’s in construction, or a dockbuilder…I don’t know…probably works with his hands…

“I’m a simple guy,” he tells me. “Not the kind of guy you’d think belongs in an Art Gallery.”

“I came in here one day, though, and you guys were so nice. And everything was so beautiful. And you made me feel really comfortable and welcome. 

I want you to know, I’ve been to five galleries since. Most of them were okay. The last one, the lady was kind of nasty. But you know what? That was her problem and I knew I belonged. I am now a counnosoire of art. Thank you!”

We looked at some stuff. He offered thoughtful reflections. We had a good time. 

It was great. I’m grateful to whomever welcomed him first. It meant a lot. 

A Guide to Gallery Going: We'll be in the Sunday Newsday!

We are delighted at this great article by Kay Blough in Newsday, “Explore Long Island art galleries like an experienced collector,” featuring our own Drigo Morin and the very awesome Wendy Curtis of the Huntington Art Center. We can’t wait to pick up Sunday’s Newsday where this will be in print. It’s got a great guide for those who’ve never been to galleries before. 

There’s excellent advice from our dear Drigo Morin, as well as an awesome photo of him with one of his refined portraits! The very awesome Wendy Curtis of the Huntington Art Center offers good stuff, too. It’s a great resource!

We hope you come to Northport this weekend. The whole village is an art gallery! Huntington is a fun, cultural treasure as well. Wait ‘til you see what all our Fireflies have in store…Wendy’s gallery is amazing, too! 

Jump right in. The art is fine.

About The Firefly

The Firefly was established in 2011 to create a gallery setting for local artists. The goal was to create a space where artists could meet, collaborate, and sell their beautiful creations.

Over more than a decade, we have had the great privilege of displaying a stunning variety of works by well over 400 artists through our Main Street locations and pop-up galleries. We boast extraordinary talent, while maintaining a very down to earth and supportive atmosphere that is unique on Long Island.

In 2020 we expanded our offerings, creating a “Darcy Arts Center” to feature special exhibitions and classes in addition to the rich selection of works by our resident artists. We are thrilled to continue to develop this in our beautiful new space, right in the center of everything! 

Every time you purchase something from The Firefly Artists you support at least two local artists. Come, experience our beautiful gallery. Bring home that perfect thing to brighten your world or someone else’s.

Thank you for your support.

Follow us on Facebook and Instagram, and check our website for all the latest updates. Even better, come to our beautiful location, The Old Hardware Store at 90 Main Street, Northport
