Announcing “Trumansburg Conservatory of Fine Arts: Past, Present, Future”, a special exhibit to commemorate our 40th anniversary, is being held in the main gallery of the Trumansburg Conservatory of Fine Arts (TCFA), February through March 2024.
Every year the Conservatory hosts five exhibits and “Trumansburg Conservatory of Fine Arts: Past, Present, Future” kicked off our 2024 exhibition calendar. It consists of historic documents, photographs, diagrams, architectural plans/renderings, and video. Explanatory texts will accompany these images and a tie-in lecture will take place at the closing. The purpose of this exhibit is to highlight the significance of the Conservatory from its inception as the First Baptist Church of Ulysses to its current role as a cultural center.
The show will be divided into three parts:
- Part I: The Past will address the history of the 1851 building which is registered as a National and State landmark and is an outstanding example of Greek Revival architecture.
- Part II: The Present will highlight our current arts programs within the context of our institutional mission created four decades ago at the founding of the Conservatory as a center of learning and culture.
- Part III: The Future will explain the restoration project planned for 2025-26 as well as our capital campaign to fund the project resulting from a matching grant of $279,000 from New York State Council on the Arts (NYSCA).
TCFA continues our regular programming in various venues around the area. Save the date while we continue to work on firming up our locations.
