Arts Commission Urges Rejection of Add'l Theater Funds

The Stratford Star reports: Members of the Arts Commission and the nearly two dozen people who attended its public hearing Wednesday night are urging the Town Council not to bond extra money for a project speakers said lacks a plan, commitment and a love of the arts, among other shortcomings.
