Gregan solo show and gallery talk at the Emerson Resort
In October of 2010, the Emerson, a four-star, four-diamond resort in Mt. Tremper, NY, hosted a major retrospective of Eugene's work. Utilizing three separate galleries encompassing over 6,000 square feet, more than 150 paintings were shown, one of the largest solo exhibitions ever held in the Woodstock — Catskill High Peaks region. Visitation and media coverage were excellent, sales were very good.
