We would be honored to have you join us at the WaterFire Arts Center for two Closing Week events in celebration of Dr. Chazan's remarkable legacy and the hundreds of artists and community members whose lives have been impacted so deeply by his support over the decades.

Collectors' Talk: Tuesday, August 27 at 6:00 p.m. Barnaby Evans will be joined by Victoria Veh, Tripp Evans, and Candita Clayton in a conversation reflecting on the importance of art collecting, investing in artists, and nurturing our community. We invite you to join us in exploring the powerful connections between art, community, and patronage, and the example Dr. Chazan set for us all.

Closing Reception & Celebration of Life: Thursday, August 29 at 6:00 p.m. Please join us for a true celebration of the extraordinary life and legacy of Dr. Chazan and a jubilant reflection on the incredible impact he had on the entire state's artistic community. Live music both inside and out and a rooftop bar by Troop.

These events are free and open to the public-- no need to RSVP, and please extend this invitation to your friends and family. NetWorks Rhode Island & the Chazan Collection will run through September 1 and you can read more about this exhibition on the WaterFire Arts website.
