PHOTOS: Perfect Night for Art to the Ave Kick-Off

Greenwich Arts Council Art to the Ave FestivitiesThursday May 7, 2015 will go down in history as probably the most perfect day for the Greenwich Arts Council’s Art-to-Ave kick-off  ever.

From the GHS Jazz Ensemble playing on the steps of the Senior Center, to the Allegra Dance Studio girls performing outside RH.

From The Trummytones playing their rendition of The Specials “Monkey Man” at the intersection of Greenwich Ave and Railroad Ave, to the passionate teenagers spreading the word of Wounded Warrior Project.

It was a very special evening, drawing a crowd of all ages to Greenwich Ave to celebrate art, local business and the great community in which we live.
