Editor's note: HamletHub is a proud sponsor of the Armonk Outdoor Art Show. Just a short drive from Ridgefield, this award-winning art show is one not to miss!

Consistently ranked among the top “fine art and design shows” in the New York Metro Area by Sunshine Artist Magazine and in the top 10% nationwide by Art Fair SourceBook, the 53rd annual Armonk Outdoor Art Show will continue its long tradition of showcasing a fresh and diverse array of art. Over 185 juried artists will be featured—55 new to this year’s show—displaying their creations in a broad spectrum of media: oils/acrylics, watercolors, mixed media, printmaking/drawing/pastels, sculpture, photography/digital art, wearable art, and fine crafts. 

This year’s show will also feature free guided tours, emerging artists, and fun-filled, kid-friendly activities. We will once again offer personal shoppers, who will be available to help visitors find and select art that best suits their taste and decor.  There is ample free parking on site, as well as a diverse food court. 

On Friday, September 19th at 7 pm, the North Castle Public Library will show a free art-themed film with commentary by LIU professor Valerie Franco.  On Saturday, September 20th at 8 pm in the library’s Whippoorwill Hall, Jazz legend Charlie Lagond & Friends will bring exciting new interpretations of contemporary and jazz favorites, all infused with infectious Latin rhythms

The Art Show will kick-off the weekend before, at 9:45 am on Sunday, September 14th, with Jamie’s 5K “Run for Love.” Jamie Love was a member of the Byram Hills cross country and track & field teams, with a notable work history at Hickory & Tweed, one of the race’s sponsors.  There will be both adult and children’s races for all who would like to participate, and walkers are welcome. To register, visit armonkoutdoorartshow.org/foot_race.html. All net proceeds from the road race benefit children’s programs at the town’s libraries.

Also on September 14th, to welcome the fall and the Art Show festivities, Armonk’s Chamber of Commerce is sponsoring a Cider and Donut festival, where all are welcome to Armonk’s downtown shopping district to partake.

The Art Show is sponsored by Friends of the North Castle Public Library, Inc., and net proceeds benefit the town’s libraries.   Admission price: $10.00, $8.00 for seniors or with coupon, children under 18 free.
