BHS 25th Annual Winter Art Show
Celebrating the Arts in Queens!
The Bayside Historical Society’s 2026 Winter Art Show is now LIVE, showcasing contemporary Queens artists working across a wide range of styles and media.
This year marks the 25th anniversary of this beloved community event, and we could not be more proud of our participants. More than 60 local artists have submitted images of their work, now exhibited in virtual galleries on the BHS website.
We also invite you to explore the Student Art Galleries, featuring the emerging talent of 20 Bayside High School artists. We congratulate these young artists and thank them for contributing their work to this year’s show.
The Winter Art Show will run through Sunday, March 1, 2026.
