In celebration of Islip Arts Council's 50th Anniversary this year, AARP asks individuals aged 50 and over to create artwork that celebrates their favorite decade - the 70's, 80's, 90's, 00's or 10's. This nostalgic ride through time will make for a fun and exciting exhibition.

To further immerse participants in the throwback moment, a 70's / 80's cover band will perform at the opening reception. Artists are also encouraged to dress to match the decade of their work for the reception.

The artwork must represent at least one of the past five decades.
