Piecing It Back Together Art Exhibit
The Galleries @ WORK_SPACE and RiseUP for Arts invite you to their collaborative art exhibit, PIECING IT BACK TOGETHER from August 26 – September 23, 2022, at WORK_SPACE, 903 Main Street. 4 CT-based artists were each given 4”x6” puzzle piece and asked to transform them into pieces of art that inspire smiles.
