DANBURY â For the month of September, Thirteen Gallery will be presenting the work of artist Eva Lee. Ms Lee is a Ridgefield-based painter who recently completed the master of fine arts program at Hunter College in New York City.

The gallery will host an opening reception for Ms Leeâs exhibit on Friday, September 8, from 7 to 10 pm. The public is invited to view Ms Leeâs works, the most recent of which is a group of drawings based on the artistâs take on the dominence of science in our culture and its empericism. Light refreshments will be served, and the artist is expected to be in attendance.

âFor me,â says Ms Lee, âlife and the universe is about the hidden and mysterious envelopment of small things by large things. All around us are embedded worlds within worlds. I render what I imagine to be the hidden truths we might never sense, and therefore, never know.â

Ms Leeâs drawings are executed in watercolor and ink. The works use a strict yet bold palette to render the imperceptable things that exist all around us in a nether reality.

Regular gallery hours are Wednesday through Friday, 6 to 9 pm; Saturday, noon to 4 pm; and by appointment. For further information, Thirteen can be reached by calling 790-6754.

Rock This Democracy: ‘Good Trouble Lives On’ Rally

Congratulations on your nomination. In your announcement, you mentioned that Newtown faces real pressures, including “traffic patterns that make everyday life more stressful.” One growing concern for many residents and business owners is the repeated traffic disruption on Main Street caused by large-scale protests and rallies at the flagpole — held without a unified permitting process. Given that Main Street is a state road with a history of serious traffic and pedestrian safety issues, how would you, as First Selectman, approach the impact of these gatherings on traffic flow, public safety, and local businesses? I ask this with sincere interest in understanding how your commitment to “thoughtful planning” and “unity of action” would apply to this very real and recurring issue.

Democrats To Run Walczak For First Selectman

I appreciate Ryan’s thoughtful and grounded perspective on the need for a consistent, transparent, and lawful permitting process for large public events in Newtown. His approach reflects common sense within the framework of the law, balancing public safety, free expression, and fiscal responsibility—exactly what we should expect from our elected officials. In contrast, I was struck by Bruce Walczak’s comment suggesting that informal and "extensive discussion" are the preferred solutions to complex public issues. While there is certainly value in dialogue, the idea that decision-making should replace the thoughtful legislative process is troubling—especially coming from someone running for First Selectman.

Says ‘No’ Vote Sidestepped Due Diligence

I am grateful to The Democratic Town committee. I can vouch for the careful consideration they took in selecting our candidates. I appreciate their confidence in my managing skills to address the many issue facing Newtown. Ill be conducting listening tours over the next few months to gain a deeper understanding of my Newtown neighbors concerns and will be ready to address then day one.

There has been a rash of dog attacks, at least three that I know about on the sidewalks in town. Owners of pets need to be more attentive and respectful of their neighbors. Aggressive dogs need to be watched carefully to protect all. This is a serious issue and should be addresses not swept under a rug.

We Need A First Selectman Who Cares

I attended the meeting, and the results were reached after extensive discussion. Thats why its important to attend these high profile meeting, you see the facts yourself, As Alex, in the following letter, said the solution is not always more rules and legislation. Speaking to each other often solves issue a lot quicker with more flexibility.
