October 20, 2006 - Ridgefield Bank hosted an exhibit from October 6th through October 18th to raise funds for The Jack Grasso Memorial Scholarship Fund. Jack Grasso was a long-time Ridgefield resident and an award-winning artist.  A few of his prints were on display at the bank's offices at 374 Main Street and 150 Danbury Road in Ridgefield.  During the exhibit prints could be ordered and donations made to the Memorial Fund. Money raised will be donated to the Memorial Fund for two scholarships – one each to be awarded to a Ridgefield high school art student and music student.  The exhibit at each office included a first time showing of a limited edition signed print of the Woodcock Barn of which only 200 are available. Anyone who made a donation or purchased a print was entered into a drawing to win a signed "Woodcock Barn" print. The prints were donated by Carol Grasso and The Frame Barn in Ridgefield.
