Nutmeg Spice
A Flavorful Collection of Works by Women Artists from the State of Connecticut

Women artists who reside in the state of Connecticut, representing a spicy mix of artistic talent, generations and culture, are part of Fairfield County’s 2008 2nd Annual Women’s Exhibition celebrated in conjunction with National Women’s History Month. “Nutmeg Spice: A Flavorful Collection of Works by Women Artists from the State of Connecticut” was curated by Picture That, LLC, a fine art  consulting firm, headquartered in Stamford, Connecticut and is sponsored by General Electric Company.

The exhibition features tasteful art that has intensely personal interpretations of the traditional genres of painting, photography, landscape, abstraction, realism and political history. Together, the strength of the artwork transcends historical gender stereotypes of women as artists and showcases how they have achieved beyond the expected and ordinary and made lasting contributions to the field of art.

“Nutmeg Spice” will officially open on March 7th and run through April 30th at the Stamford Center for the Arts Sackler Gallery, located at The Palace Theatre, 61 Atlantic Street, downtown Stamford. The gallery is open Monday through Saturday from 10 AM to 6 PM. An artist reception will be held on Wednesday, March 19 from 6pm to 8pm in the Sackler Gallery.  This community-wide event is free and open to the public.  For directions to The Palace Theatre visit www.stamfordcenterforthearts.org.
