Photo Exhibit Celebrates Scarsdale

A new photography exhibition celebrating the people, places, and everyday beauty of Scarsdale is now on display at the Scarsdale Public Library, featuring 144 images captured by local residents.

The exhibit grew from an initiative called Scarsdale Photo Day when the community was invited to submit photos of Scarsdale taken between November 30th through to December 7th 2025. Scarsdale residents were encouraged to use their phones or cameras to capture moments that reflect the spirit of our wonderful community. Participants submitted photographs of favorite streets, Scarsdale landmarks, children having fun, and the peaceful but joyful scenes that remind us all why we love to call Scarsdale our home.

All photographs are now being showcased in a special exhibition running from March 4th to March 27th at the library and are available for purchase, with proceeds supporting Pleasantville Cottage School.

The exhibit opened with a lively reception on the evening of March 4th, where guests gathered from 6 to 8PM to view the photographs and celebrate the local talent and joy of photography within the Scarsdale community. Soft drinks, wine, and light bites including sushi and snacks were served as residents mingled, explored, and discussed the delightful display.

The event was organized by cousins and co-chairs Jack Harrison and Max Harrison, students at Scarsdale High School. The boys took on the project for the first time this year and helped bring together this amazing and community-driven exhibition. Their family also contributed greatly to the evening’s hospitality, providing food and drinks and warmly welcoming guests throughout the reception and exhibit.

Friends, family members, and Scarsdale residents all stopped by during the opening night, creating a relaxed and upbeat atmosphere as visitors moved through the exhibit and talked with the organizers and friends about their work.

In addition to viewing the photos at the library, visitors can purchase images through an online gallery. QR codes posted alongside the displays allow guests to easily access the website and buy their favorite photographs with all proceeds supporting Pleasantville.

This exhibit is a powerful reminder that the most meaningful portraits of a community often come from the people who live there, capturing the everyday moments that make Scarsdale such a special place to call home. Stop by and see it from now through March 27, 2026.
