Sylvester Manor is pleased to announce Sculpture @ Sylvester Manor, an outdoor exhibition of sculptures, installations and artistic expressions. Curated by Tom Cugliani, the exhibition engages a diverse spectrum of artists local to the East End of Long Island and takes place on the historic landscape of Sylvester Manor on Shelter Island from June 22 until September 8, 2024.
The exhibition is open to the public and free to attend.

Sylvester Manor’s varied landscape features woodlands, parklands, coastal shorelines, meadows, and formal gardens and represents an early confluence of three distinct cultures: the Indigenous, the European and the Enslaved Africans who lived, worked and died on the land.
The 2024 exhibition will feature the following artists from Shelter Island, along with the North and South Forks.
Exhibition curator and organizer Tom Cugliani brings extensive expertise in the contemporary art world to the project, as well as a lifelong history with Shelter Island and Sylvester Manor. Tom Cugliani’s gallery launched the careers of established artists such as Christian Marclay, Jack Pierson and Charles Le Dray, following which Cugliani served as Marlborough Gallery’s point person for the great American painter Alex Katz. Additionally, Cugliani managed a $30M art acquisition budget for the corporate collection of Celebrity Cruise and Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines, and the installation of over 3,000 works of art onto their passenger cruise ships over a period of 6 years. He continues to advise numerous private, corporate and public collections.
