Ridge Art
LINKS
The following are links to websites you may find useful when preparing to visit Oak Park or when furthering your understanding of Haitian art and Haiti. Several of the links are to non-profit organizations that Ridge Art supports because they work to benefit the people of Haiti. We have also included a couple of sites just because we like them and think you might like them, too.
The official website of the Oak Park Arts District where Ridge Art is located. It lists the openings and special events offered by the unique boutiques, galleries and restaurants in the district and includes links to their websites.
Website of Oak Park shops and restaurants
The Oak Park Art League’s website. The league offers children and adult art classes and community oriented exhibits.
The Oak Park Area Arts Council is a good source for art related information for Oak Park and the surrounding communities.
This is Bob Corbett’s website. Corbett is a scholar and a lover of all things Haitian. His site is an endless source of everything you want to know and don’t want to know about the country. The Corbett List is probably the best way to keep informed on what is happening in Haiti from every political point of view. It can be overwhelming.
