What's happening at The Smithy

Artist in Residence

Marisabel Artieda started drawing and painting at a very young age, and later studied graphic design, but she found her true passion in the Fine Arts. This exhibition is a retrospective collection of her past and current work and highlights her love for her native Peru and Connecticut.

Artist in Residence- Susan Lerner

The work communicates personal experiences by literally traveling down memory lane, exploring the world near and far. Many of these collages are grounded in both New York City and Litchfield, CT, which represent home. Others elicit the desire to travel and explore the world and different cultures. Ultimately, the work embodies the attitude that anything is possible.
