Local Art Displayed at Upcoming Ridgefield Art Association Show.
“One of the main things RAA does is give a scholarship each year to a Ridgefield High School student who is going to go on in the art world,” said Bruce Crockett, RAA president.
Previously, the scholarship has been for $500, but RAA started fundraising early with a goal of increasing the scholarship to $2,000. RAA has already raised more than three-quarters of that from Ridgefield businesses and hopes to add to it with the profits from the auction.
Much of the artwork on display will also be on sale.
The art show is Friday, May 6 from 6 to 9 p.m. and Saturday, May 7 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Ridgefield Community Center. Visit http://www.ridgefieldartassociation.com/ for more information.
