Albany -- David Miner was a featured artist last week (October 21) during the 62^nd Annual NYSARC Convention at the Crown Plaza Hotel. A resident of Batavia, David’s home is a Genesee ARC-operated residence on Ellicott Street Road.

According to family members, David has loved having a camera in his hands since he was very young. His father, Ken Miner, owned a small newspaper, the Country Post, and in the 1970s, David accompanied him all over Western New York and the Southern Tier as his dad covered local news in small towns.

His photo exhibit featured scenes from the many places he has visited with his oldest sister, Jan, over the years including New York City, Washington, D.C., the Great Smoky Mountains and Mount Rushmore. This past summer, they went to Yellowstone National Park.

David is an award-winning artist and has had his work featured in Exceptional Artworks traveling shows.

The NYSARC Convention exhibit helped showcase the many talented artists served by NYSARC’s 55 chapters throughout New York.
