East End Arts To Honor Suffolk County National Bank During ARTworks 2015 Spring Gala

"We believe strongly that the collaboration between business and the arts strengthens and enriches communities," noted Howard C. Bluver, President and CEO of Suffolk County National Bank (SCNB).

On Saturday, April 25th, East End Arts is honoring Suffolk County National Bank for their longtime commitment to the arts during the ARTworks 2015 Spring Gala. From 6 to 11 p.m., join East End Arts at East Wind for an evening of cocktails and hors d'oeuvres, dinner and dancing to the tunes of the Denice Given Band, and live and silent auctions.

"We are proud of our partnership with East End Arts, and honored to be recognized by one of the region's premier arts organization," expressed Bluver.

Throughout the year, SCNB supports several East End Arts' signature programs including the Teeny Awards high school theatre recognition program, Winterfest Live on the Vine Music Festival, the Community Mosaic Street Painting Festival, and The Harvest Gospel Choir Concert Series.
