On Saturday, June 11, 2011, the Gallery at Still River Editions will be opening as part of Connecticut Comission on Culture and Tourism's Open House Day 2011. Across the state on that day art galleries, historical properties, museums, parks, and other organizations will be offering free admission, tours, refreshments, and activities.
The inaugural re-opening exhibition at our gallery will feature the work of photographers Keith Johnson and Mark Savoia (co-owner of Connecticut Photographics and Still River Editions). Both Mark and Keith were 2010 Artist Fellowship Recipients from the Connecticut Commission on Culture and Tourism.
We don't normally have Saturday hours, so if you've been meaning to come visit us and haven't had time during the week, this would be a great day to come out, look at some art, and chat with us about printing/art/photography. We'll have some light refreshments, and look forward to having some of our clients meet each other. It's a hidden little community--folks don't usually get to meet unless there's a mini-pileup at the counter.
As the date approaches, I'll list other participating venues in the area. For those who aren't familiar with us, we're in downtown Danbury very close to the Danbury Railway Museum and Danbury Historical Society, and not too far from the Aldrich Museum of Contemporary Art in Ridgefield. Not far from I-84 exit 5, but I strongly suggest following written directions to get here the first time.
If you can't make it on June 11, there will also be an artist's reception (probably an evening event), with a date in June to be determined. Regular gallery hours are our normal business hours: Monday through Friday 8:30 am - 5 pm.
