The Stevenson Academy Lives On

Three of SAFA's instructors could not bear to see all of Attila's hard work and passion die with the unfortunate and sad closing of SAFA in Oyster Bay. Therefore, these instructors (Pat Lind, Jennifer Vomvas and Laura Freeze) are honoring SAFA's founder, Attila Hejja, at the Art League of Long Island (ALLI) in Dix Hills, by continuing to teach the painting program he developed. The Stevenson Academy Program at the Art League of Long Island continues, albeit as a separate entity, with the same drawing and painting program and quality instruction, attention and support that students have come to expect from the Stevenson Academy. We will never compromise Attila's high standard of excellence.

We are so happy that many former SAFA students have joined us at ALLI. Thank you for your support. We always welcome former SAFA students. If you have an unfinished painting that you started at SAFA in Oyster Bay, you can finish it with us at ALLI. We have taken all the props and equipment from Oyster Bay to ALLI so you can pick up where you left off, even if your painting is dry. We teach all levels from beginner and beyond, and advanced students can work on independent projects.

Inaddition, ALLI offers hundreds of courses in sculpture, watercolor painting, plein-aire painting, ceramics, portfolio prep, pastels, printmaking, etc., all taught by professional artists. Click here for a list of courses that we feel former SAFA students may be interested in.

The Stevenson Academy instructors are extremely grateful to the Art League of Long Island for their generous support and for making us feel welcome in our new home. The Art League of Long Island is the oldest and largest art league on Long Island. They have an incredibly beautiful, two-story gallery, spacious classrooms and a wide selection of classes, workshops, exhibits, lectures, museum tours, fine art and craft shows. Click here for pictures of this gorgeous facility. The gallery and classrooms are located at exit 42N off the Northern Parkway; just 15 minutes from the old SAFA building in Oyster Bay.
