Now all grown up, Harrington is putting together a monthlong show at the Anthony Brunelli Fine Arts Gallery in Binghamton, titled "This is the way we play and learn," displaying work designed to evoke the environment Harrington grew up in.

“When you look at my work, it creates a narrative or a story, and that story references growing up in Endwell, New York, which is a white, middle-class, suburban New York in the 1960s,” Harrington said.

His exhibit will involve a number of assemblages, which can be described as a cross of sculpture and collage.
