CURRENT: ASKASQÁYUW WACUW:Green Hill Guest Curated by Shinnecock Indian Nation artist Jeremy DennisOn view

October 9–November 30, 2026

North Fork Art Collective presents ASKASQÁYUW WACUW (Green Hill), a group exhibition guest-curated by Jeremy Dennis, Shinnecock artist and Lead Artist of Ma’s House & BIPOC Art Studio. Bringing together artists from the Shinnecock Indian Nation alongside Indigenous artists who have participated in Ma’s House residency programs, the exhibition considers relationships between land, memory, transformation, and Indigenous presence on Long Island.

The exhibition takes its name from “Green Hill,” one of the earlier names for what is now Greenport. Historical accounts describe a prominent hill that once marked the landscape before it was eventually leveled, with its earth used to expand parts of the developing commercial waterfront. ASKASQÁYUW WACUW uses this history as a starting point to ask what happens when land is physically changed, occupied, renamed, or remembered after it is gone.

Through contemporary Indigenous perspectives, participating artists explore green as color, landscape, grass, plant life, medicine, growth, and renewal—as well as a way to think about land loss and what may exist today only through memory. Rather than treating landscape as a passive backdrop, ASKASQÁYUW WACUW considers land as a living archive carrying history, relationships, absence, survival, and possibilities for the future.

PAST: NOTES FROM A GEMINI RISING: A SOLO show by kara hoblin

Part collection, part observation, part experiment, this exhibition brings together paintings, drawings, found objects, and natural curiosities gathered over time. Inspired by the flora and fauna of the North Fork, memories of place, folklore, and the beauty of overlooked objects, the work explores what it means to create from what is already here.

Like pages from a sketchbook or a collector’s journal, each piece celebrates curiosity, storytelling, and the magic found in everyday moments, from beachcombed treasures and thrifted finds to imagined landscapes and whimsical narratives.

Come wander through a cabinet of curiosities, where art and nature meet, and where every object has a story to tell.

CURRENT: MARITIME | Curated by Kara Hoblin ON DISPLAY until November 30th | CELEBRATING 36 YEARS OF THE GREENPORT MARITIME FESTIVAL

The exhibition features work by artists from the North Fork Art Collective, including Scott Bluedorn, Adam Straus, Rochelle Kyrk, Hilary North, Wendell Jamieson, Nick Cordone, Katie Kooks, Jeremy Garretson, Jeremy Dennis,TJ Wisco, Pat Nelson, Marilyn Utz, Bri Sander, and more.

Through painting, drawing, photography, sculpture, mixed media, found objects, and other forms, the exhibition offers a wide-ranging interpretation of maritime life on the North Fork, both historically and today.

CURRENTLY ON DISPLAY AT ALDOS COFFEE CO.: MARITIME | Curated by Kara Hoblin

Aldos Coffee Co. has always been a great supporter of the Collective and we rotate exhibits throughout the year featuring various artists from the 166 Collective members. We are so grateful for this amazing partnership.

“For so many of us, the water is inseparable from the experience of living and creating here,” says North Fork Art Collective founder Kara Hoblin. “With the Maritime Festival celebrating its 36th year, we wanted the gallery and beyond to become another place where people could experience that history and connection through the eyes of our local artists. This show is a celebration of the working waterfront, the people who have shaped it, and the incredible landscape and maritime traditions that continue to define Greenport.”

PAST: HOMETOWN PROUD:PERSONAL WORKS | PHOTOGRAPHY show | FEBRUARY 2025 - APRIL 2025

Hometown Proud: Personal Work brings together Madison Fender, Jess Paul, David Benthal, Jeremy Garretson, Caroline Rochetta, Chris Fenimore, Carl Timpone, and Estefany Molina, artists who often work within commercial spaces, stepping away from client work to share photographs made purely from personal vision.

This exhibition is a reflection of home as seen through many lenses. Moments of quiet observation, emotion, memory, and familiarity come together to form a portrait of the community we live and work in. These are the images made in between assignments, the ones created for no reason other than the need to see, to document, and to understand.
