The Rowayton Arts Center now boasts over 200 Exhibiting Members! To view a listing of our members, find the Exhibiting Members Gallery image on the RAC homepage which changes every time you visit the website (see red arrow below) to visit rowaytonarts.org/artists.
These dedicated local artists create across all media – search this by using a filter at the top of the page: painting, photography, pastels and drawings, mixed media, sculpture. Click on an artist’s name to see if they have a bio with an image of their artwork (this is a free perk of RAC membership, so members please use the form here to add this info or if you’d like to change anything!)
