In a few days we will welcome 2022 with hope and optimism that soon this pandemic will be behind us. This past year highlighted the importance of building community, caring for each other, and how comforting the arts, culture and live music are to our lives.

With the support of our donors, Newton Community Pride brought free and accessible programming to our village centers in 2021 - the Artful Piano project, the Newton Out Doors public art initiative, the Linda Plaut Newton Festival of the Arts and the September Song music series.

In addition, NCP supported Parks, Recreation & Culture programming with over $34,700, distributed $10,000 in community micro grants to arts and service organizations and soon will be announcing $3,000 in high school scholarships to foster the next generation of Newton artists. 

On February 12-13th, we look forward to hosting a new event - WinterFEST with ice sculptures, live music, costumed characters, lights and more!

Please help us continue to bring free community programming and show your Newton community pride with a donation today. We are 70% to our year end fundraising goal of $10,000. Join our family of supporters with a tax deductible year end contribution and help our small nonprofit produce another impactful year of art and family friendly events.
