Tucked into the heart of its community, the stunning Greenwich Library is home to more than just books. On the second floor, you’ll find the Flinn Gallery, a vibrant, non-profit exhibition space with a strong focus on education and community engagement. Run by a dedicated committee of over 40 volunteers, the gallery presents a dynamic lineup of five to six contemporary art exhibitions each season, from September through June.
The Flinn Gallery also offers engaging opening receptions, artist talks and related programming, all thoughtfully curated and always free and open to the public. Whether you are a seasoned art enthusiast or just looking for something new to explore, the Flinn Gallery is a welcoming space where art and community come together.
The Flinn Gallery, in partnership with Hanoi’s renowned Art Vietnam Gallery, is presenting “Vietnam: Tradition Upended,” the season’s opening exhibition. This dynamic show brings together nine innovative artists, working across a range of mediums. The exhibition explores how traditional Vietnamese materials and cultural motifs are being redefined in bold and contemporary ways.
This year holds deep historical significance as 2025 marks 50 years since the end of the Vietnam War and 30 years since the normalization of relations between the United States and Vietnam. It is a powerful moment to highlight a new generation of Vietnamese artists who are innovative, expressive and unafraid to challenge the past as they continue to shape the future.
