'Afterglow' Arts Event Looking To Return To King Street

A local arts and culture event is looking to return to the streets of Bridgewater. Ashton Rodenhiser recently presented to town council about hosting 'Afterglow' on King Street towards the end of September. Over 50 artists participated in last year's event, providing dance or theatre performances, film and video or mobile art. Rodenhiser says it's about bringing people to the area.



The Afterglow group is looking for in-kind support from the town including use of electrical outlets, provide event banners and be covered under the town's liability insurance. Council referred the matter back to staff to look at the financial impact of the group's request.
