The League mourns the loss of former League instructor and painter Richard Mayhew, who passed away peacefully in his home in California at the age of 100. His gallery Venus Over Manhattan writes:⁠

"Mayhew is survived by his children, Ina and Scott, and his wife, Rosemary. His contributions to art and his profound impact on the cultural landscape will never be forgotten.⁠

"A previously planned exhibition, dedicated to Richard Mayhew’s watercolors, will open to the public at Venus Over Manhattan on Thursday, November 7th. A public celebration of his life and work will be announced in the coming weeks."⁠
