The Canton Flower Bridge is about to launch its third year of providing beautiful floral displays along the
wooden walking bridge, located beside the Farmington River on River Road in Collinsville.
Canton Main Street, Inc.
, the originating organization for this project, is especially grateful for the community's positive response to this beautification effort. The generosity of numerous businesses, organizations and individuals has provided the essential funding needed to develop the flower bridge over the past two years. During this time, the bridge has displayed 11 stunning hanging flower baskets, 5 flower boxes and 3 large stationary planters. As the seasons changed, the bridge transitioned to a beautiful winter display that included evergreen planters and holiday kissing balls. Additionally, a drip irrigation system was installed to help nurture the flowers through the hot summer months. Our vision remains focused on the enhancement of Canton's natural beauty using floral displays that will delight residents and visitors to our town.

Gallery on the Green presents "Interplay: Joseph Byrne and Elizabeth Gourlay," plus a solo show by Susan Spaniol and a group Calligraphic Art exhibit.
Friday, April 21 through Sunday, May 21
This year's Annual Maxwell Shepherd Memorial Invitational Exhibition is "Interplay: Joseph
Byrne and Elizabeth Gourlay." The artists' work centers on interactions of color, shape, line, and
space. Byrne's paintings begin with still life arrangements of objects; Gourlay calls on her long developed
language of abstraction based on geometric shapes and line. Both build architectural
armatures to carry their personal responses to the surrounding world. In "Interplay," their
works create conversations among themselves and with each other, drawing attention to their
commonality and underscoring their distinctive pathways. Byrne is Professor of Fine Arts at
Trinity College. Gourlay teaches at the Lyme Academy of Fine Arts and at Rhode Island School
of Design.
The opening reception is on Saturday, April 22 from 6 to 9 p.m. and will be preceded by a gallery talk by the Byrne and Gorlay at 5:00.
