One of the most active arts organizations in Norwalk, the Rowayton Arts Center (RAC), operates a well-trafficked gallery in the heart of the Rowayton’s Village District on Rowayton Ave. Housed in the original building for the volunteer fire department, RAC began as a series of art classes by local businessmen. Now the organization represents regional artists who show their works during the many exhibits offered. The workshops continue.
