the Power of the Arts

Unfortunately due to circumstances beyond our control, effective Wednesday, May 22, 2013 the HealingNewtown Art space will close it's doors at 5 Queen Street, Newtown. However, the Newtown Cultural Arts Commission will continue this important work. Programs and workshops will be scheduled at various locations throughout Newtown. During this transition, an aggressive effort is being made to find a suitable and more permanent home for the HealingNewtown Art Space to continue what we’ve started. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. We will post updates about the HealingNewtown Art Space as it develops, so check back often!

Don’t forget to check the calendar for new locations of the programs and workshops being offered!

Newtown and the Sandy Hook Community are deeply appreciative of the outpouring of love, support and generosity from our fellow citizens locally, regionally, nationally and worldwide.

In the wake of December 14^th, HealingNewtown was created to facilitate, support, and coordinate all arts-focused efforts made on Newtown’s behalf today, tomorrow and into the future. The project is managed by the Newtown Cultural Arts Commission and supported by The Town of Newtown, The Cultural Alliance of Western CT and The Connecticut Office of the Arts.

As Newtown and the Sandy Hook Community work through the many stages of healing we invite you to visit this site often to learn how you can help and how to become part of our arts healing process.

Our Goals:

1. To manage and program arts healing efforts;

2. Coordinate the overwhelming response from the national and international arts community in regards to the tragedy;

3. To develop a sustainable operation for long-term healing through arts-based efforts.
