City-Wide Open Studios, now in its 23rd year, is a month long festival celebrating the talent of Connecticut’s artists. Each year, we adopt a theme that prompts artists and visitors to reflect on and engage around issues that impact our community. This year’s theme of Who Governs? is inspired by Robert Dahl’s book Who Governs?: Democracy and Power in an American City. .
This year, due to the challenges of COVID-19, we brought the festival to you online, allowing you to digitally meet 200+ artists and learn about their work and their practices.
