Dear Friends,
This summer, I’m honored to be one of nearly eighty artists participating in the inaugural exhibition at Underwater Kite, a new contemporary art space in Windsor, Connecticut. The exhibition opens June 20 with a reception from 6-9PM and runs through September 27, 2026, offering visitors plenty of opportunities to experience a remarkable range of work from artists across the region. (Click here to scroll through images of the exhibiting artists.)
What makes this exhibition especially exciting is that it represents the realization of a new vision by artist, curator, and arts advocate Anthony Zito, who many in Connecticut’s arts community know from his time at Parkville Gallery in Hartford. Anthony, an artist himself, has long been a champion of other artists, creating opportunities for connection, experimentation, and visibility. Underwater Kite continues that spirit, providing a fresh space dedicated to contemporary art and creative exchange.
Launching a new gallery is no small undertaking, and anyone who values the arts knows that spaces like these thrive through community support. Whether you attend the opening reception on June 20 or visit sometime during the exhibition’s three-month run, I encourage you to make the trip. You’ll discover an extraordinary variety of artwork, meet fellow art lovers, and help support an ambitious new chapter in Connecticut’s cultural landscape.
I hope you’ll stop by, spend some time with the work, and help welcome Underwater Kite into our arts community. Independent galleries and artist-led spaces are vital places for conversation, discovery, and inspiration. It’s exciting to see a new one take flight.
