Art Gallery Event: Poetry Reading
Join Kathy Winters, this month’s featured artist, and Abby Braithwaite from Plas Newydd Farm, at the Ridgefield Art Gallery for a water themed poetry reading from 2-4pm.
Water Water Everywhere featuring Kathy Winters
Dive deep into the watercolor pieces Kathy Winters has made in her storied career. It's appropriate that our first exhibit, so near Ridgefield's port, would be about the water, painted by water. Please join us in celebrating Kathy's work, and many works from the rest of our members, on Friday January 9th, 2026 inside the Ridgefield Art Association's first gallery space: Ridgefield Art Gallery. Light refreshments served.
Grand Opening and Exhibit Opening “All Together Now”
Join us for our Grand Opening and First Exhibit together as an artist cooperative! We’ll supply light refreshments and merriment. And don’t forget to visit the Ridgefield Library before our event to see the RAA Black & White + One exhibit opening.
