KICKS Public Art Event

When: Now through September 20, 2024
Where: All over Ridgefield (See map)
Cost: Free

KICKS Public Art is an event where local citizens and businesses can purchase fiberglass resin sneaker sculptures to decorate in any and every way possible to be displayed all over Ridgefield, CT. All proceeds from the event will be donated to KICKS for Kids and ArtFul Visual Arts Initiative.

Starting now through September 20th, sponsors and artists will be able to display their decorated KICKS Sneaker Sculptures around town.

The “Run Around Town” Scavenger Hunt will take place on September 6th – 7th. Grab the family and kids and make a day of being outside—checking out the shoe sculptures in addition to finding real sneakers hidden around Ridgefield. Once you’ve crushed the scavenger hunt, head on over to check out The Fitness Expo on September 7th sponsored by Fairfield County Bank. This is a public event full of physical activities and fitness-promoting fun sponsored by the bank and other local vendors. Interested vendors who’d like to participate can still register for a tent.

On Tuesday, September 24th, 2024 from 6-9 pm, an auction will be held at The Benjamin wherein all net proceeds will be to KICKS for Kids and ArtFul Visual Arts Initiative. Guests will place their final bids on the shoes (as well as a few other items) in a silent auction. Hors d’oeuvres will be served, spirits will be available, and and come dressed in your perfect KICKS Worthy Casual Outfit.
