Town, art experience partner to help the hungry

The Town of Oyster Bay has announced a partnership with Beyond Van Gogh: The Immersive Experience at Samanea New York (located at 1500 Old Country Road, Westbury) to help Long Island Cares combat food insecurity during the summer now through August 6. Residents who purchase a ticket and donate at least two non-perishable food items will receive one complimentary admission per ticket holder to the immersive event as a thank-you for their contribution toward ending hunger. Beyond Van Gogh: The Immersive Experience, produced by Paquin Entertainment Group, features more than 300 of Vincent Van Gogh’s iconic artworks and takes the art lover into a three-dimensional world.

Supervisor Saladino stated, “The Town of Oyster Bay is proud to partner with Long Island Cares throughout the year, and we thank Beyond Van Gogh: The Immersive Experience for their good corporate citizenship and willingness to give back to Long Island. Residents can enjoy the iconic artwork of Vincent Van Gogh while displaying generosity and helping children who may not have access to school meals during the summer break.”
