“Meet the Artist” with Jade Doskow

On Thursday, April 25, we welcome Jade Doskow to “Meet the Artist” night at CPW. Doskow will present her ongoing work as the Freshkills Photographer-in-Residence. She will discuss the ways in which the work describes the complications of the unique New York City site and how her photographs relate to the greater history of landscape and place-based photography. This event will be live-streamed on CPW’s YouTube Page at 6 pm.

Join us every Thursday evening at CPW, when we host illuminating talks with local and visiting artists. “Meet the Artist” allows the public to get to know new work, to hear about artistic processes, and to meet friends and other local artists. The evening takes place at CPW’s gallery at 474 Broadway in Kingston, NY. It is free and open to the public. Coffee, tea, and snacks are served. “Meet the Artist” is made possible by a generous grant from the Arnold and Augusta Newman Foundation.
