This Week in Westville is your go-to source for news, events, activities and goings-on in the Westville community. Like NPR and other user-supported media, much of our operations rely on the support of our "local listeners" - you, the reader. In order for the Westville Village Renaissance Alliance to continue providing this valuable community service, we ask you to donate or join WVRA as a Village Person today! Beyond the e-news, WVRA is working every day to make Westville a brighter, safer, more vibrant place to be. To learn more about our Main Street program initiatives, from community and cultural activities, economic revitalization, traffic-calming, historic preservation, and other quality of life efforts, click HERE.

THE ART OF CRAFT BEER @KLG
"These are the artists and designers who help bring our favorite beers and breweries to life. Over this two week installation we will have unique opportunities to engage with the space and experience their art and passion in 3-D.
You will have the opportunity to meet many of these artists at our opening night event as well as enjoy live music and enjoy craft beer together over the run.
We are also very proud to announce that we are working with the CT ASRC (Autism Services and Resources Connecticut). Proceeds from this event will go to this amazing non-profit that has helped so many including my own family. In addition to that we are organizing an ASRC Family day at the gallery, so that everyone can enjoy this experience together."
