Art Connection Studio in Parkville Market

Join us around The Local on Friday, July 25th at 4PM for the opening reception of Art Connection Studio (ACS) as they showcase the powerful work of some artists in their Vocational Art Program—individuals living with mental health conditions and/or intellectual and developmental disabilities—who are part of Vinfen Connecticut day services.

As an innovative nonprofit art center and gallery, ACS is built on the belief that nurturing relationships and creative expression can transform lives.

This is more than an art show—it’s a celebration of resilience, imagination, and the power of community. Meet the artists, hear their stories, and experience the beauty of their creative journey.
