Announcing conneCT-NY Initiative
Clay Art Center, Flinn Gallery of Greenwich Library, and Greenwich Historical Society announce conneCT_NY Culture Trip, a new collaboration highlighting the richness of art | history | culture within the local setting.
Designed as inspiration for a perfect day trip adventure, conneCT-NY Culture Trip promotes accessibility to the offerings of all three organizations. The sites are linked by road or rail, and only 15 minutes apart along the Connecticut/New York coastline. Experienced together, they offer a shared cultural experience and open a dialogue on artistic expression and historical context, forging connection, and honoring community.
All three organizations are free to the public on Wednesdays, with a Guided Exhibitions & Studio Tour available at Clay Art Center at 11.30am every Wednesday.
The conneCT-NY Culture Trip encourages visitor participation, through a social-media-driven initiative. Scan the QR code on brochures, found at any of the three partner locations to follow on Instagram! Post your own photos, videos, and selfies, tag the account, and have your content shared. Add your experience feedback and let people know what you enjoyed most, so you can encourage other visitors to share the experience. Follow the account on Instagram: @connect_ctny
