ABOUT

ABOUT

For 50 years, the vision and passion of Five Towns College founders and educators, Stanley and Lorraine Cohen, continue to be realized in the work of young filmmakers, musicians, visual and performing artists.

 

Known as Long Island’s College for Creative Students, the college promotes and celebrates purposeful and effectual art from diverse perspectives, and is pleased to expand its reach to the community.

 

To honor the work of both Five Towns College and Long Island high school students, the college presents the Long Island Media Arts Show and Luminaries Awards. The Juried Exhibition will include work in Film, Photography, 2D Art, and Animation. Student filmmakers and artists from the college and community are encouraged to push their creativity and skills to new levels, and submit work to be considered.

 

An Opening Reception and Luminaries Awards Ceremony will celebrate the accomplishments of student artists and filmmakers. Five Towns College invites family, friends, educators, and patrons of the arts to attend.

 

The event promises to be a true manifestation of talent, creativity, and artistic energy.
