“CELEBRATE CITY LIGHTS” is planned to recognize the thirteen years City Lights Gallery has been a Downtown arts venue. The celebration will include a private tour of the new gallery space and viewing of “City Lights 13,” a retrospective of exhibits, initiatives and collaborations. Through collaboration and support from the greater Bridgeport community, City Lights has and will continue to offer free programs, provide work opportunities for artists, promote Bridgeport’s rich arts and cultural scene, and make arts accessible for youth and adults of all abilities.
To help ensure a bright future for City Lights, a benefit reception will be held on Friday, May 19, 2017 from 5:30 PM to 7:15 PM in the Gallery’s new space at 265 Golden Hill Street, Bridgeport. THE EXHIBIT & PROSECCO RECEPTION is sponsored by the Bridgeport-based law firm Pullman & Comley LLC. The reception will feature Prosecco and a sampling local RED BEE HONEY and other tastings. Tickets to the reception are $50 and will allow you to mingle with artists and fellow City Lights patrons, volunteers and board members. For reservations, call 203-984-8613.
