“Stamford is going to just flood artists”
The streets of downtown Stamford will transform into one large art exhibit this weekend for the City’s first ever Artwalk. The free event, created by the Stamford Downtown Special Services District, will showcase more than 90 artists in shops, restaurants, and galleries downtown.
Stamford DSSD President Sandy Goldstein says, “We want to make sure that people recognize the downtown as an art venue.”
Patrons can visit over 35 venues on the Artwalk route, where they will run into live music, performances, and special activities a long the way.
Artwalk curator Valerie Cooper says, “It’s just a wonderful conglomerate of diversity, culture, of different nationalities, and my vision was to put something together that reflected exactly what Stamford sort of stands for.”
The Old Town Hall Museum and UConn’s campus art gallery are just two of six participating galleries that will feature special exhibits for the event.

During season 9 of “So You Think You Can Dance,” dancer Hampton Williams wowed judges and America with his “exorcist” style audition. His performance was moving, but Williams bowed out of the competition when other choreography proved too difficult.
Williams returned this season, bringing a new element to tryouts — his 4-year-old daughter. The adorable and talented little girl performed an astounding routine with Dad (and mom!). Spoiler alert: all three were sent straight to Vegas.

When Jaime Moore’s daughter, Emma, turned 5, the Texas mom and photographer set out to commemorate the occasion in pictures. Searching for inspiration online, however, she was dismayed to find the majority of girls at that age dressed up, unrealistically, as fairy-tale princesses. So Jaime decided to raise the bar.
Mom searched for better role models, and together with Emma selected five real women that a girl can actually aspire to be like. Then, they replicated iconic portraits of those figures — Susan B. Anthony, Coco Chanel, Amelia Earhart, Helen Keller and Jane Goodall.
The title of the series, “NOT just a girl,” is meant to be an inspirational message for young women seeking to realize their full potential — beyond vague dreams of Disney princesses.

WOW!!! This is a remarkable, unbelievable performance!
I don’t think Tchaikovsky had this choreography in mind when he wrote ” Swan Lake “. How could anyone imagine the performance you are about to see. With a population of 1.3 billion, the Chinese had to locate two great dancer/athletes…… and they did!!!
See it and believe it …It is almost unbelievable!!!

Looking for an interesting way to educate your children on the value of art history? Perhaps this photography project, imagined by Australian artist Bill Gekas and his adorable 5-year-old daughter, can help.
Drawing inspiration from classical paintings from Rembrandt, Raphael and Velazquez, Gekas and his daughter worked together to pay tribute to well-known portraits. With the snap of a shutter, the pint-sized model, who dons all the traditional garb in her father’s photographs, transforms into familiar figures like Johannes Vermeer’s “Girl with a Pearl Earring” (above). In a previous interview with JPG Magazine, Gekas says, “I like blurring the line between fine art and portraiture, creating something deeper.”
