Tour of Art, 2nd Saturday on Spring Street in Newton September 11, 2009

As part of the September 12 Tour Of Art event, Main Street Newton and the Second Saturday Committee will have musical performers on Spring Street between Madison and Main Streets from 5:00 - 8:00pm. Three different singer/songwriters with three distinct performing styles will be on hand throughout the evening: the bluesy, mystical voice of Rebel Red Peralta, the quirky “pull no punches” lyrics of Judy Aron accompanied by percussionist Leo LeBarge and the brilliant finger style work of guitarist/banjo/mandolin player John Sheehan.

While the music fills the air, the Second Annual Main Street Newton Tour of Art kicks off when merchants all along Spring St play host to area artists working in watercolor, traditional oil, acrylics, photography, fabrics, ceramics and more. This years Tour of Art includes twice as many merchant venues as last year enabling the event to show the works of more than 30 artists. The artists will “in Residence” from 5-8pm at the merchant venues where their work is being displayed. Tour of Art provides a unique opportunity to visit with the creators of the art on display during a lovely fall evening filled with music, special events and store specials.
