Bridgeport ArtTrail

The Nest Arts Factory is once again part of the Bridgeport Art Trail.  Open studios for nationally renowned artists, gallery exhibitions and receptions, musical presentations and orchestral concerts, dance performances, yoga demonstrations, photography shows and a zoo animal art show are among the events in the mix, slated to take place Thursday, Nov. 10, through Sunday, Nov. 13.

There will be about 30 venues -- at which hundreds of visual and performing artists from Connecticut and New York work and create -- are inviting culture-vultures throughout the region to revel in a super saturation of the arts during the Veterans Day weekend.
