Member Andrew Young Showing in NYC

 Eerdmans is showing recent works by member Andrew W. Young in a show titled "Fathoming," April 12th to May 18th at their 14 East 10th Street in Greenwich Village, NYC gallery.   The  work is grounded in eighteen years researching little known artist and educator, William H.
