The Gallery Connect Children's Book Illustrators Show,  organized by Deborah Cuneo , featured the work of area illustrators. Each participating artist was allowed to show up to 3 pieces. As the gallery/café space is run by the C3 Church and shares space in the Rainbow Chimes building, a daycare/pre-school, we were asked that at least one of our child friendly art be bible related. The show is up for the month of March 2012. Exhibiting CBIG members in random order: Deborah Cuneo, Diana Ting Delosh, Leeza Hernandez, Teresa Tyler, Diane Allison, Penny Weber, Laura Goetz, Donna Miskend, Beth Bogert, Cheryl Taborsky, Babara Mason Rast, Roberta M. Rivera. Members will be posting their art on this blog during the month of March. Gallery Connect 30 Broadway/Greenlawn Rd., Huntington, NY 11743  631-271-0271 c3churchli.com
