When our family moved to town after living abroad for six years, we were feeling a bit out of place, and our world was spinning and we were trying to keep up. There are so many to choose from in town, but the one that has not only left an imprint on my heart but makes me smile even on a cloudy day is The Prospector Theater. Is there an organization in town that makes you feel good? Ridgefield offers cosmopolitan creativity and culture in a country setting. Then we have to applaud the fashion and hair scene in town for creativity, keep on-trend with the latest styles.

From independent film festivals to rock star performances on stages big and small, from creative dance or gazing in the windows at the studio on Main Street as they prepare the children for the Nutcracker. Through history reenactments and tours, to modern art, to musical theater, to sidewalk chalk and windows displays by elementary students. Ridgefield is deep into providing cultural and creative experiences for all ages.
