Happy Memorial Day!
And arrival (soon) of summer. And whatever else you’re celebrating.
This week — just in time for Westport’s Fine Arts Festival — we celebrate another pack of Westport artists. And whether you’re a regular wanderer through our online gallery, or a first-time visitor: Welcome!
No matter your age; the style or subject you choose — and whether you’re a first-timer or old-timer — we want your submissions. Watercolors, oils, charcoal, pen-and-ink, acrylics, mixed media, digital, lithographs, collages, macramé, jewelry, sculpture, decoupage, needlepoint — we want whatever you’ve got.
Just email a JPG to 06880blog@gmail.com. And please include the medium you’re working in.

He earned several degrees and speaks several languages. He’s back, and knows that the youth in his tribe must get an education. But will they lose the traditions of their culture?”
