An antique car show, a chance to visit the studio of internationally acclaimed pop artist Charles Fazzino, a free performance by the Dance Theatre of Harlem Ensemble, an opportunity to contribute to the creation of piece of public art… these are just a few of the pleasures of this year’s “ArtsFest” in New Rochelle, Saturday and Sunday, September 24th and 25th, from 12:30 to 5:30 pm each day. Organized by the New Rochelle Council on the Arts, ArtsFest highlights the variety of arts and arts venues in New Rochelle, with art exhibits, programs and activities that give both visitors and residents alike a window into the city’s rich cultural and artistic diversity. The weekend-long celebration will include art installations, tours of artist’s studios, live music, family-friendly crafts, great food, exciting performances, and two free “Culture Trolleys” providing “hop on – hop off” transportation to the activities taking place in public and private cultural institutions throughout the city.
