Influencing Bridgeport– City Lights Gallery

Bijou Square asks: Where were you before you lived here?

Suzanne: I lived in Norwalk, Milford, and Italy before coming to Bridgeport to run City Lights Gallery.

Bijou Square: What brought you here?

Suzanne: City Lights Gallery, the space, the potential. I lived in SoNo until the real estate development squeezed the artists living and working there out.

Bijou Square: What do you do in Bridgeport?

Suzanne: I run City Lights Gallery, present public art events, offer classes in the gallery space, teach art to children and adults.

Bijou Square: What’s one spot you could be in Bridgeport all day and why?

Suzanne: Seaside Park is great, Saint Mary's, and I like the environment of McLevy Green.

Bijou Square: What do you think we’re missing here?

Suzanne: More art events and classes, festivals, ice cream shops and sushi would be nice. A larger arts audience and art enthusiasts.

  • Once Upon A Time

    This is a love story. Except it has no boy meets girl, no diamond rings, no sobbing at the end. Instead, it is about a devotion between a community and it's budding neighborhood. Our non-traditional bunch includes artists, musicians, eco-urban planners, lego-enthusiasts, gourmet chefs, librarians, and historians. To name a few. Realizing the potential in our surroundings, we are collaborating minds and skills to generate change. Replacing the negative undertone with positive energy. Bringing awareness to the fact that our city is a cultural hub. And, we intend to leave quite an impression on our small dot of the map. What we do is where we live. Where we live is Bridgeport. Won't you be our neighbor?
