Faces of America: Servicemen Portraits by the New Rochelle Art Association
In 1943 the NRAA became involved in a project organized by the USO to sketch portraits of servicemen at USO centers. The original portraits were mailed to whomever the servicemen requested. The sketches were done both at Fort Slocum on David’s Island and at the Masonic Services Center here in New Rochelle. This exhibition will feature dozens of reproductions of these historical portraits as well as a modern version of this project including portraits created by current members of present day servicemen. The New Rochelle Art Association is celebrating its 100th year and will be holding several historical exhibits at different venues across the city.
