Seventh Annual Stonington Borough Art Walk set for Sept. 13

The Stonington Borough Merchants Association is hosting its one-day outdoor art fair, The Seventh Annual Art Walk, to include more than 60 artists from New England, with a special focus on Stonington artists. The Art Walk, free to the public, will take place Saturday, September 13, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., with a rain/wind date of Sunday, September 14, and is expected to attract visitors from across the region. The Stonington Village Improvement Association and Water Street Design Associates are the event’s platinum sponsors.

Water Street between High Street and Church Street will be closed for the day to accommodate the event. Artists from ten genres, including pottery, illustration, jewelry, mixed media, painting, photography, printmaking, sculpture, textiles, and woodworking, will line the street with tents, with artists tucked into courtyards and placed at storefronts.

“One of the many reasons Stonington Borough is a state-designated cultural district is this event, and the talented artists and makers who show up for it, said Sandra Alexander, event promoter and marketing/design lead for the Stonington Borough Merchants Association. “Showcasing our community’s deep pool of creative and cultural assets, set against the backdrop of our beautiful, historic seaside village, is what makes this event so special.”

Affiliated activities will take place in support of the Art Walk:

Food

In addition to the Borough’s restaurants, Zest Fresh Pastry will be serving crepes in the courtyard on Grand Street, next to Maggie Lee Designs (and Art Walk featured artist, Deidre Corcoran).
