The Ridgefield Guild of Artists and The Keeler Tavern Museum join together to present an exhibition of work inspired by the 250th birthday of America. The show will be at The Keeler Tavern Museum.

Presented by the Ridgefield Guild of Artists

July 4 – 13, 2025 · Th-Su 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Carriage Barn

Free

The Ridgefield Guild of Artists and KTM&HC are joining together to kick off the celebration of the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence with an exhibition dedicated to the beauty to be found in this country. In this juried show, artists' works will speak to their feelings about what it means to be an American.

The show will open in the carriage barn on Friday, July 4 as part of the townwide celebration and America250 Kickoff hosted by KTM&HC and will run through Sunday, July 13. The closing reception will take place on July 13 from 2-4pm. 

Artists: The deadline to apply is Saturday, June 14. Head to the RGA website and/or email rgoa.exhibitions@gmail.com for more information about submissions. The show is open to members and non-members, and artists ages 16 and older are eligible to enter.

Celebrate one year of Anonymous Society in Redding, CT with an afternoon of art, conversation, and community. Join us on Saturday, July 12 from 12 to 4pm for light refreshments and an in-gallery artist talk at 2pm, featuring Sonja Langford and Rachel Volpone, whose work is currently on view.

Free and open to the public. All are welcome.

Anonymous Society is pleased to present If / Only / And / Then, a dynamic new exhibition featuring a dynamic new exhibition featuring work in painting, mixed

media, and ceramics by Sonja Langford (North Carolina / Connecticut), Faye Pamintuan (Philippines / Texas / New York), and Rachel Volpone (Connecticut). Running from June 5 through July 20, 2025, the exhibition traces how the language we carry—spoken, unspoken, imagined—shapes the course of our lives, offering a means to reauthor the self in moments of both fierce protection and quiet surrender, in pursuit of deeper becoming.

This show centers on the moments that define us—the decisions, disruptions, and relationships that shape identity in all its complexity. The featured art works engage with transformation, personal mythology, constructed identity, and the radical authorship of self in systems that have long erased, commodified, or distorted the female voice. If / Only / And / Then doesn’t seek resolution—it charts direction, carving out space through bold, deliberate acts of imagination.

Through diverse media, Langford, Pamintuan, and Volpone offer work that resists containment. Whether abstract, narrative, or conceptual, their practices ask how we locate ourselves—and each other—within shifting cultural landscapes. The exhibition invites viewers into an evolving dialogue about identity, memory, and possibility, offering a space where complexity is not only acknowledged but honored.

Join us at Anonymous Society for the opening reception on Thursday, June 5, 2025, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM.

Anonymous Society is an independent exhibition space committed to showcasing contemporary art that challenges convention, amplifies creative voices, and fosters critical dialogue.

Gallery hours are Thursdays and Fridays from 12 PM to 5 PM, Saturdays from 10 AM to 2 PM, or by appointment. For more information, visit www.anonymoussocietygallery.com or email info@anonymoussocietygallery.com.

Have you ever wondered how birds survive the “dog days” of summer? Join us at Deer Pond Farm for our Summer Bird Behaviors program. Starting in the classroom, avian expert Lori Lichtenauer will discuss how parent birds care for fledglings, bird molting patterns, when and how birds prepare for their long-distance migratory journeys! We will hit the trails for the last hour of the program.

Anonymous Society is pleased to present If / Only / And / Then, a dynamic new exhibition featuring a dynamic new exhibition featuring work in painting, mixed

media, and ceramics by Sonja Langford (North Carolina / Connecticut), Faye Pamintuan (Philippines / Texas / New York), and Rachel Volpone (Connecticut). Running from June 5 through July 20, 2025, the exhibition traces how the language we carry—spoken, unspoken, imagined—shapes the course of our lives, offering a means to reauthor the self in moments of both fierce protection and quiet surrender, in pursuit of deeper becoming.

This show centers on the moments that define us—the decisions, disruptions, and relationships that shape identity in all its complexity. The featured art works engage with transformation, personal mythology, constructed identity, and the radical authorship of self in systems that have long erased, commodified, or distorted the female voice. If / Only / And / Then doesn’t seek resolution—it charts direction, carving out space through bold, deliberate acts of imagination.

Through diverse media, Langford, Pamintuan, and Volpone offer work that resists containment. Whether abstract, narrative, or conceptual, their practices ask how we locate ourselves—and each other—within shifting cultural landscapes. The exhibition invites viewers into an evolving dialogue about identity, memory, and possibility, offering a space where complexity is not only acknowledged but honored.

Join us at Anonymous Society for the opening reception on Thursday, June 5, 2025, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM.

Anonymous Society is an independent exhibition space committed to showcasing contemporary art that challenges convention, amplifies creative voices, and fosters critical dialogue.

Gallery hours are Thursdays and Fridays from 12 PM to 5 PM, Saturdays from 10 AM to 2 PM, or by appointment. For more information, visit  www.anonymoussocietygallery.com or email info@anonymoussocietygallery.com.

Anonymous Society is pleased to present If / Only / And / Then, a dynamic new exhibition featuring a dynamic new exhibition featuring work in painting, mixed

media, and ceramics by Sonja Langford (North Carolina / Connecticut), Faye Pamintuan (Philippines / Texas / New York), and Rachel Volpone (Connecticut). Running from June 5 through July 20, 2025, the exhibition traces how the language we carry—spoken, unspoken, imagined—shapes the course of our lives, offering a means to reauthor the self in moments of both fierce protection and quiet surrender, in pursuit of deeper becoming.

This show centers on the moments that define us—the decisions, disruptions, and relationships that shape identity in all its complexity. The featured art works engage with transformation, personal mythology, constructed identity, and the radical authorship of self in systems that have long erased, commodified, or distorted the female voice. If / Only / And / Then doesn’t seek resolution—it charts direction, carving out space through bold, deliberate acts of imagination.

Through diverse media, Langford, Pamintuan, and Volpone offer work that resists containment. Whether abstract, narrative, or conceptual, their practices ask how we locate ourselves—and each other—within shifting cultural landscapes. The exhibition invites viewers into an evolving dialogue about identity, memory, and possibility, offering a space where complexity is not only acknowledged but honored.

Join us at Anonymous Society for the opening reception on Thursday, June 5, 2025, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM.

Anonymous Society is an independent exhibition space committed to showcasing contemporary art that challenges convention, amplifies creative voices, and fosters critical dialogue.

Gallery hours are Thursdays and Fridays from 12 PM to 5 PM, Saturdays from 10 AM to 2 PM, or by appointment. For more information, visit  www.anonymoussocietygallery.com or email info@anonymoussocietygallery.com.

The legendary love triangle of King Arthur, Guenevere and Sir Lancelot leaps from the pages of T.H. White’s novel in Lerner and Loewe’s award-winning, soaring musical "Camelot". The musical explores the themes of love, betrayal, and the quest for a just society in a mythic time. It will be directed by Jane Farnol with musical director Sarah Fay. Auditions will be held April 27 & 28 for a cast of 8 roles plus ensemble.

Shows are at the theatre on Route 25, next to Brookfield Library, on July 11 thru Aug 2 on Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sunday at 2 p.m. Reserved seating tickets are $35 for adults, $30 for seniors 65 and older, and $25 for students. They are available online at www.BrookfieldTheatre.org or at the box office. There will also be a free preview on Thursday, July 10 at 8 p.m. for area senior citizens.

Brookfield Theatre's 2025 Season is made possible with the support of the Department of Economic and Community Development, Office of Arts; Support has also been provided to Brookield Theatre from CT Humanities (CTH), with funding provided by the Connecticut State Department of Economic and Community Development/Connecticut Office of the Arts (COA) from the Connecticut State Legislature; Along with the generous donations of our many supporters and subscribers.

🎭 Step into the rehearsal room—where the real drama unfolds.

In a small-town community center, five strangers gather for an acting class. As they play theater games and push their boundaries, buried secrets, quiet heartbreaks, and unexpected connections come to the surface.

Written by Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Annie Baker, Circle Mirror Transformation is a masterful exploration of human vulnerability, the power of storytelling, and the unspoken moments that shape us. Under the direction of Gale Alexander, this intimate, poignant, and darkly humorous play invites audiences to witness the raw beauty of ordinary lives unfolding in extraordinary ways.

Don’t miss this quietly mesmerizing and profoundly moving theatrical experience!

The Merwinsville Hotel is excited to be continuing the Glass Orb Scavenger Hunt thanks to a generous donation from the New Milford Commission on the Arts.

There are 24 area historic sites and organizations that are participating with the Hotel. Each site is hiding four numbered and dated one-of-a-kind glass orbs (three clear and one colored) either inside or outside on their property. Participants can search for and keep any glass orb that they find, but please limit one orb per person/family so everyone has a chance! Be sure to register your orb on the Merwinsville Hotel website where you can also upload a photo. Share your find on social media and don't forget to tag the organization where you found it!

The blown glass orbs that are numbered, dated for 2025, and stamped with “MHR 50”. In addition to the clear glass orbs, there are 25 colored orbs for 2025. Reminder: Because each organization's hours vary, be sure to check their websites before you head out on your hunt.
