Creativity Connects Stamford
What fuels a vibrant, connected, and creative community? What makes people feel good about living in Stamford?
When locals share the creativity that they uncover in the nooks and crannies of their community it brings about connectivity and makes us all feel good. Believe it or not, you discover creativity every day as you walk, shop, work, and play in Stamford.
Creativity connects us.
Maria A. Sette, Stamford resident and Fairfield County Mom contributor.
Any place in town where you go for inspiration and creativity?
Easy! The Stamford Museum and Nature Center. My boys and I love going there with friends and family, especially to their wonderful festival days, like National S’mores Day, Spring in the Farm and of course, for the maker space inside the house. Whenever we go, we leave with new ideas for animal names, plants we could grow, and ways to upcycle materials.
Is there an organization in town that makes you feel good?
So many organizations make me feel good, but the one that is closest to my heart these days is Fairfield County Moms Collective. This amazing group of moms throughout all of Fairfield County truly inspire me hourly. I have been a part of the group for over five years and have loved every minute. If I ever need an idea of what to do with my family, I checked their website first for all the amazing round ups. If my husband and I want to have a date night, it helps us branch out to new restaurants. What I love most though about Fairfield County Moms is, it’s moms supporting moms in all aspects of womanhood and motherhood.
Finish this sentence: When I think of creativity in town I think of…
...the Stamford Downtown. They offer so many creative outlets for the City of Stamford, especially during the pandemic. My boys (ages 5 and 9) love the Thanksgiving inflation party, the Thanksgiving Parade, the annual Art Walk, and Heights & Lights. As a native Stamfordite, I am proud of how our city continues to evolve.
