ARTS FESTIVAL:
Wesleyan's Green Street Arts Center hosted its second annual Arts
Festival June 17. The community was invited to watch performances and
participate in various arts classes.
Art projects were ongoing throughout the
day. Children between the ages of 7-18 had the opportunity to create and sell their
crafts at a Children's Craft Fair.
