Shoreline ArtSpace Series is a collaborative effort of the Shoreline Arts Alliance and Women & Family Life Center featuring rotating, themed exhibits that celebrate the creativity, expression and voices of local visual artists.  In addition to providing the artists with free gallery space to showcase their work, the project aims to encourage visitors to Guilford’s historic district and help familiarize people with the missions and programs of the Shoreline Arts Alliance and Women & Family Life Center.  Spearheaded by Jennifer Newton, artist, teacher and former owner of Shoreline Art Gallery this series will present its second exhibit July 6 – September 6 with an exhibition titled Ways of Seeing, featuring the contemplative photography of Rosemary DeLucco-Alpert.  Coinciding with this exhibit is the release of a new book How to Start a Home-Based Photography Business co-authored by the artist.  There will be an artist’s reception and book signing on Thursday, July 13 from 5:30 – 7:00pm at the Carriage House Gallery at Women & Family Life Center, 96 Fair Street, Guilford, CT.  Additional viewings are by appointment.  Call 203-458-6699 or 203-453-3890 to schedule a visit.
