The winter season at the Rowayton Arts Center is off and running. Right out of the gate is the exhibition, “Beyond Brushwork,” featuring artwork created or enhanced with tools other than the tried and true paintbrush. The exhibit is juried by Dr. Arianne Kolb, and co-chaired by Dana Laird and Gregg Weiz.
