Neptune in June is an artist-run curatorial and community project based in Port Chester, NY. Its two-fold mission focuses on both supporting emerging artists who are seeking connection to the larger contemporary art dialogue, and bringing meaningful conversations to the Port Chester community that are in tune with local culture. Neptune in June curates exhibitions locally and across the U.S., and offers workshops, performances, and other public events in partnership with fellow art spaces and community service groups. Founded in 2024 by Jenn Cacciola (Co-Founder of former art space, Ice Cream Social), Neptune in June continues the community-focused project begun at ICS.
