Six local artists who live or work in Wilton comprise “Art Times Six Art Exhibition,” the first art show of the winter season at Wilton Library, opening Friday, Jan. 6, from 6 to 7:30 p.m. The featured artists are Janel Cassara, Art Gerstein, Susan Kurnit, Lenore Sillery, Russell Sillery and Cindy Sinor. With more than 60 works being featured, there is a diversity of subject matter, style and medium ranging from animals to portraits, impressionistic to abstract, oils to manipulated digital photography and more. The reception is free and open to the public. “Some of the artists’ works may seem familiar,” remarked Ed MacEwen, the art chairman for Wilton Library. “All six artists exhibited during the annual Summer Show and as I walked through the library, there was something memorable from each of them that made me realize patrons might like to see more.”
The exhibition runs through Friday, Jan. 27. A majority of the works will be available for purchase with a portion of the proceeds benefiting the library. Wilton Library hours are Mondays through Thursdays, 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., Fridays, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Saturdays, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sundays, 1 to 5 p.m. The library will be closed on Monday, Jan. 16 in observance of Martin Luther King Day. Wilton Library is located at 137 Old Ridgefield Road in the heart of Wilton Center. For information and directions, visit www.wiltonlibrary.org or call 203-762-6334.
