The Arts and Cultural Alliance of Newport County’s monthly networking event, Arts Around the Fire, opens a new season on Wednesday, October 18th from 6-8pm at Parlor at 200 Broadway in Newport.
The Alliance’s guest will be German pianist and Newport resident, Clemens Teufel. Teufel has announced the creation of a year- round arts-inspired music series named PUDDINGSTONE FESTIVAL, which will combine performing and non-performing arts in an approachable 19th century-style salon. Teufel ‘s vision is of a Newport as a center of culture with music and art only a stone's throw away at every turn and accessible to the widest audience possible.
