Evelyn Hassell

On Saturday, June 11, 2011, the Art & Relaxation Committee hosted an Art Exhibit and Reception in the Annette Dwyer Art Gallery at the Vito A. Gallo Building, 12 Chestnut Avenue, Summit. Evelyn Hassell, the art instructor, and her students displayed the paintings they created during the 2010/2011 semester. Vito A. Gallo Building residents Penny Hanak, Elizabeth Pierce, Lois Leming, Carol Buchan, Cecilia Walsh, and Edward Pizzi were among those who exhibited their work. Easels and canvases were set up for visitors who wished to create their own works of art.

The Art & Relaxation Workshop was founded in 2002 as an enrichment program at the Vito A. Gallo Building by Evelyn H. Hassell. The Annette Dwyer Art Gallery was established January 20, 2006.

The Summit Housing Authority was originally established in 1938, and was reestablished in 1968 to build 90 units of low-rent housing. Hardworking, committed Housing Authority Boards of Commissioners and staff members and progressive City of Summit Common Council members worked together throughout the years to complete a total of 195 low-income housing units at three sites within the City of Summit.
