The Arts in Fairfield County

Because of the proximity to NYC, many artists made their way to this area to avail themselves of the quiet and bucolic settings they were searching for. The Bush-Holley house in Old Greenwich and Weir Farm that straddles Wilton and Ridgefield, are both National historic sites, and both well known for their contribution to American Impressionism.



Westport's Famous Artist School, which was housed there until the early 80s, attracted many artists who had correspondence students all around they country. They're out of Wilton now and still instruct cartoonists. The town was known as an artist's colony and has attracted people in all facets of the arts.

The Arts and Fairfield County go together. On this page you can find links to many of the organizations and resources our county has to offer.
