A new show at the Rowayton Arts Center (RAC), “Community Sponsored Awards,” will be on view June 27 through July 25, 2021. This exhibition features over 60 pieces of artwork by RAC Exhibiting Members representing their best work of the year. The opening reception is free and open to the public on Sunday, June 27 from 4 pm to 6 pm.
RAC gallery hours are Tuesday through Friday from 12 pm to 5 pm, Saturday and Sunday from 10 am to 1 pm. The Chair for the exhibition is Heide Follin and the Co-chair is Yuko Ike. The judge Jahmane West’s career began in the form of graffiti or “Street Art” and has evolved into a wide spectrum of mediums – he works from his studio in Norwalk, CT as a teaching artist and curator.
RAC celebrates the study, creation and appreciation of the arts through classes, exhibitions and events open to all in the community. For over 60 years, this nonprofit organization has been a cultural gem in Rowayton, CT. The gallery and art school overlook the scenic Five Mile River at 145 Rowayton Avenue with space for regional artists to exhibit their art and a classroom for workshops and classes at all levels offered to children and adults.
