Ridgefield Art Openings, Sunday, September 7

There are two wonderful art openings this Sunday, September 7, right here in Ridgefield. The Enchanted Garden at 529 Ethan Allen Hwy (Rte 7) will host an exhibit of new work by Suzanne Benton called "Captivating History." The opening is Sunday at 3:00 pm. Suzanne is an internationally known artist and member of the Silvermine Guild of Artists in New Canaan. She has also contributed to local culture by participating in local arts events and continuing to show often in her hometown of Ridgefield.

Building Blocks Gallery at 49 Ethan Allen Hwy (Rte 7) will have an opening reception Sunday from 2:30 - 5:00 for Brendan Loughlin. Mr. Loughlin has been called "Connecticut's Modern Day Van Gogh" by Yankee Magazine. On Saturday, September 6, Mr. Loughlin will give a free art demonstration of his Pastac technique from 2-5, also at Building Blocks.

Both openings on Sunday are on Rte 7 very close to each other. Support local artists and arts organizations and visit them both!
