To the Editor:

In 2012, The Newtown Cultural Arts Commission had an extraordinary vision.

The nine-member Commission established the Newtown Arts Festival to promote and support the local arts community.

Scheduled to take place this weekend, September 17th and 18th, the Festival offers arts-inspired entertainment, education and exhibits. Over 60 artists will be displaying their work.

Now in its 10th year, the Festival relies entirely on hard-working volunteers and sponsorship from local businesses. Thank you.

Please come and see the incredible talent and artistry that lives here in our town.
