We introduce a notion of N-connectedness of a topological space with respect to a convexity on this space. For a given collection H\mathcal{H} of subsets of a set X we introduce different convexities and topologies on both H\mathcal{H} and X. Then we prove that the convexity G\mathcal{G} generated by H\mathcal{H} is of arity N whenever H\mathcal{H} is connected and X is N-connected.
