The Long Island Music Hall of Fame's Inaugural Exhibit, "A First Look," recently completed a two month run at the Oceanside Public Library in Oceanside.

The show, which is receiving great praise from library visitors, features some wonderful pieces of memorabilia that trace Long Island's rich musical history. A walk through the exhibit will take you from the days of George M. Cohan right through to Run-DMC. A careful look will reveal a very young Billy Joel, a teenage Cyndi Lauper, and a behind the stage glimpse at a pre-Tommy Hilfiger Jones Beach Theatre.

The exhibit has been a been a big hit in the two communities that have experienced it (Port Washington and Oceanside) so far, and the Hall will continue to travel with the show through 2006. The show will change in the future, so be sure to check out the current selection of items and artists now!
