The Roxbury Arts Group is proud to present a walking art tour in partnership local Stamford businesses. ‘Outside Looking In’ is curated by ADHOC, an artist collective that live and work in and around the Catskills. ‘Outside Looking In’ opens with a reception beginning in Veteran’s Memorial Park on Saturday, November 7 from 2:00 – 4:00p where guests will be provided with a map of the six businesses taking part in the walking tour and bags of individual tasty treats provided for the walk. This event is free and open to all.
Guests are invited to stroll the village of Stamford and enjoy the works of Beth Caspar, Laura Sue King, Hedi Kyle, Patrice Lorenz, Miguel Martinez-Riddle, Amy Masters, Elaine Mayes, Alan Powell, Ted Sheridan, Nat Thomas and Ellen Wong.

“This is a many birds, one stone exhibition” says Samantha Nick Grants and Community Coordinator of the Roxbury Arts Group. “This exhibition will help support local business, local artists and make the arts accessible to the community. As COVID has retrained some of our programs, we have been excited to collaborate and innovate with artists and community members in new ways”.
“We live in a time where dialogue, opinions and identity are tending to box us in instead of fostering new connections and providing new ways to see the world,” say the members of the ADHOC artist collective. “This year has been an unusually heavy dose of being inside, looking out and reflecting on turbulent times for all of us. Flipping the narrative, we are on the outside, looking in.”
‘Outside Looking In’ will be on view in the Village of Stamford through November 28, and exhibit maps will be available at local businesses after the opening reception on Saturday, November 7.
