The Walk To Remember...Walnut Beach Art Stroll - Thursday, April 12th

Firehouse Gallery's new exhibit "Wings, Wheels and Rudders" is an outstanding display of an array of modes of travel. Starts at 6:00 pm....Enjoy as each piece takes you on a ride to the next! Enjoy the time with the artists who created these works! Awards given! and don't forget to choose you favorite of the evening!



What would you like to travel on? Put your wings on? Attach wheels to your feet? or If you prefer boating attach to the sails, hang on to the rudder, or do all the work and bring your oars! Enjoy the evening as you fly, roll, or float down the Avenue, Naugatuck Avenue.

Get pizza a Alfa's Restaurant, get a snack at The New Town Deli....
