NORWALK, CT, April 24, 2017 — The Cultural Alliance of Fairfield County continues its partnership with Silvermine Arts Center in producing a series of events on the theme of better cultivating art collectors in Fairfield County to help support the regional arts economy.

The discussion will focus on the education of collectors: what are the best sources of information about trends and rising artists, what should collectors look for in artists’ resumes, how can they develop and trust their own eye in evaluating the work of artists, how can they best gauge an investment in an artist, and more. The panel of curators, writers, artists, an investment expert, and a collector, will also explore the best ways of building relationships between curators, museums, galleries, writers, artists and collectors. Registration for this free event is required and can be madehere. Panelists are: Marty Baron, Sharon Butler, Robin Jaffe Frank, Terri Smith andDmitri Wright.
