Rediscover Greenwich Avenue and Two Way Street Exhibitions
This spring and summer, historic buildings in downtown Greenwich will become canvases for large-scale murals featuring archival images of what those places looked like in the past, with text and images drawn from the Greenwich Historical Society’ s collections and include interactive QR codes, that when scanned, share those unique stories.
The murals, designed by Untapped New York ’s artist Aaron Asis , are in conjunction with a new series of guided walking tours exploring the history of Greenwich Avenue and its local businesses led by Justin Rivers, Untapped New York’s chief experience officer and Christopher Shields, Historical Society director of Library and Archives.
The Two Way Street exhibition by Greenwich Historical Society and Untapped New York at the Greenwich Arts Council is a companion to Rediscover Greenwich Avenue. This collaborative exhibition uses large-scale art site specific installations made from historic materials to explore how the Avenue’s identity has evolved and how it continues to serve as a hub of commerce and creativity in Greenwich.
