Awards:
Robert Schaefer's work was selected by Vicki Goldberg for an exhibition in

recipient of a Special Opportunity Stipend (SOS) Award from the New York
Foundation for the Arts and the East End Arts Council in Riverhead, New York
(Long Island's NorthShore). The money received from this grant paid for the
invitations of an exhibition he had at the OysterPond's Historical Society
in Orient on Long Island's NorthFork. For his SOS Grant he was sent letters
of congratulations by State Senator Kenneth LaValle and Representative George
S. Hochbrueckner. Robert was selected as a finalist by Photographer's Forum
