Art To The Avenue 2010

Art to the Avenue, the Greenwich Arts Council’s annual spring celebration, turns Greenwich into a strolling art gallery that brings contemporary artists to downtown store windows through the month of May. In recent years, Art to the Avenue has grown to include “Off Avenue” community locations as well, that extend the reach of the exhibitions. All art is for sale.
