The Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum in Ridgefield has been awarded a $20,000 Arts Projects grant from the National Endowments for the Arts.  The money will be used to fund the production costs for their exhibit “52 Women Artists: Revisiting a Feminist Milestone.” The Aldrich will restage their 1972 exhibition Twenty-Six Contemporary Women Artists juxtaposed with works by contemporary artists.  4th District Congressman Jim Himes says supporting museums and artists during this pandemic is crucial to preserving  Southwest Connecticut’s culture and local economy.  He noted that The Aldrich’s exhibit is important in recognizing female artists who are underrepresented in many artistic fields.
