Where ART Thou? is a local television program first aired on September 20th, 2020 and last aired on July 31st, 2022 by PBS member station Connecticut Public Television with a total of two seasons. Connecticut Public serves almost a million Connecticut citizens each month. Arts and culture reporter Ray Hardman[2] hosts and tours Connecticut's artists, cultural groups and arts-related businesses throughout the state. Each episode highlights two artistic individuals – whether it be sculptors, painters, or musicians – from different regions of Connecticut. The first season features artists in Bridgeport, Litchfield Hills, Greater Hartford, Greater New Haven, the Eastern Shoreline, and Fairfield County. The second season features creatives from Middletown, Waterbury, North Central Connecticut, Greater Danbury, and Connecticut's Quiet Corner, the Storrs area. [3]
Reception
This program was well received by several local news outlets as the series spotlighted many local talents. The Bridgeport episode highlighted Ruben Marroquin[4], a fiber artist and weaver who works as a classroom assistant at the Fashion Institute of Technology.[5] The FIT News page celebrated his feature in the program. [6] In the North Central Connecticut episode, Nowashe Village in South Windsor was highlighted as the episode highlighted Miciah and Taylor Stasis, sisters from Herring Pond Wampanoag. [7] The sisters demonstrate basket weaving and porcupine quill embroidery. The filming of this episode was featured on the Nowashe Village Museum website. [8] According to arts journalist and Where ART Thou? host Ray Hardman, most Connecticut residents engage with art and culture in their everyday life similar to what the program highlights. A survey conducted by CT Humanities [9] discovered that 88% of Connecticut citizens feel as though state legislature should work to support the different cultural communities and organizations. [10] The program gave viewers a chance to experience certain artistic and cultural gems otherwise hidden throughout the state. The state upholds a provincial local government system that makes it slightly less often that citizens are aware of all the smaller but important cultural communities in parts outside of their own. [11]

The second season of Where ART Thou? was nominated in the Arts and Entertainment Long Form Content category at the 46th annual Boston/New England Emmy awards.[12] Several of the crew members are also Emmy award-winning professionals.

Executive Producer Tim Rasmussen and Cinematographers Mike Dunphy and Dave Wurtzel. [14]
