Vicinanza Studios & Gallery is delighted to host an Artist Reception for the acclaimed Connecticut painter and potter, Kelly Keenan.

Keenan’s art is a heartfelt and exquisite reflection of her deep love for the natural world. Drawing inspiration from her time spent gardening and observing the seasonal shifts around her, she masterfully weaves themes of plants, animals, and local landscapes into both her expressive paintings and textural ceramics. Her dual practice offers a unique exhibition experience, highlighting how her vision translates across mediums—from the broad stroke of a brush to the delicate shaping of clay.

Beyond her studio practice, Kelly brings a wealth of knowledge and passion to the arts community, serving as the Director of Art Services for a NY/CT fine arts foundation and championing creative initiatives as the President of the Southbury Arts and Culture Alliance.

Join us for a special evening to meet Kelly Keenan, discuss her inspiration, and view her incredible body of work. This is a perfect opportunity to support a local artist and acquire a piece that brings the beauty of nature into your home.
