Gallery Opening

We’re excited to invite you to our newest gallery exhibition at Village Center for the Arts.

Evoking Contrast
Ceramics by Matt Denning
Paintings by Beatrice Rossi-Landi

Gallery Opening
Friday, April 4th
6:30–8:00 PM
12 Main Street, New Milford
Free and open to the public

This two-person exhibition brings together the elemental presence of clay and the luminous quality of paint in a dynamic exploration of contrast.

Matt Denning, a Bridgewater-based ceramic artist with over 40 years of experience, presents wood-fired and salt-glazed works shaped by flame, texture, and tradition.

Beatrice Rossi-Landi, a Roxbury painter with an international background in design and fine art, draws inspiration from the landscapes of Litchfield County, capturing color, atmosphere, and subtle shifts in light.

Together, their work creates a compelling visual dialogue within our gallery space.

The exhibition will remain on view through April 26th.

We hope you’ll join us for the opening and experience this powerful pairing in person.

Gallery Opening

Village Center for the Arts Presents: “Don’t Forget 2 Live” Featuring Richie Nigro
Saturday, March 7th from 6:30–8:00 PM.

Village Center for the Arts (VCA), located at 12 Main Street in New Milford, CT is proud to present “Don’t Forget 2 Live”, a gallery exhibition featuring artist Richie Nigro (also known as RFX Art). The opening reception will take place on Saturday, March 7th from 6:30–8:00 PM. This event is free and open to the public, and refreshments will be served.

Richie Nigro is an award-winning tattoo artist whose creative work extends beyond skin to canvas. Originally from Long Island, NY, and raised in Danbury, CT, Richie brings a bold, high-energy style to his paintings, creating a vibrant world that moves between portraiture and abstract expression.

His work is driven by a lifelong passion for creativity and self-expression, drawing inspiration from music, fashion, and culture. Color, design, and emotion are central to his pieces, which reflect both personal storytelling and a universal connection to living fully in the moment.

“Don’t Forget 2 Live” invites viewers to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with the joy and presence of creating. Through dynamic compositions and vibrant color, Richie’s work encourages us to celebrate life and the beauty of creative freedom.
