The "Festival of Local Arts & Music" co-sponsored by the Buttonwood Tree and WESU-AM will come to MxCC for the first time this summer, performing outside in the Grove on Sunday, August 12 from 4-8 p.m. (or in Chapman Hall Multipurpose room if it rains). The festival will be a modern-day vaudeville-style variety show of several Middletown-area musical groups and other performing artists.
