Wyckoff Wanderings
Art exhibit at the Wyckoff YMCA An art exhibit by Janice Nelson and Ken Bloom will be on display at the Wyckoff Family YMCA, 691 Wyckoff Avenue in Wyckoff during the month of May. Nelson recently retired as head of the art department of Ramapo High School after 32 years. Nelson’s art reflects her extensive travels throughout Europe and North America, where she painted a wide range of subjects in a variety of formats. Bloom is a photographer and a retired corporate finance executive. His passion for travel has taken him to six continents visiting such places as Nepal, Thailand, Hong Kong, China, Russia, the Czech Republic, Alaska, and throughout Europe and the U.S. Most recently he traveled to South Africa, which is the subject of this newest gallery of his photographs. Exhibited artwork will be available for sale throughout the month of May. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Wyckoff YMCA.
