AmFab artist studios visitor: ‘I wish there were more places like this’

Virginia Macias of Stamford was walking down the stairs of the American Fabrics complex with two friends, having just spent time checking out all the artist studios inside the former East End factory.

Macias didn’t need to give a detailed explanation of what the group thought of the AmFab open studios event on Saturday. “I think the bags tell the story,” she said, with all three women holding bags from purchases they had made as they prepared to leave.
