The 2020 “BAT” comes with its unique challenges due to Covid19. On an average year, visitors discover arts venues, studios, and pop-ups throughout Bridgeport, engaging artists, arts enthusiasts, business people, residents and neighbors of all ages and backgrounds from the CT-NY region. A robust promotional campaign and program schedule raises awareness of the growing arts community and promotes a positive image of the re-invention of Bridgeport through the arts and community development.
