Norfolk Now has been awarded a $3,500 grant to help produce a special
literary issue to mark the town’s 250 th anniversary celebration on August 1.
The award was announced by Guy Rovezzi, president of the Torrington-
based Community Foundation. “The funding was made possible by a
collaborative grant to the foundation by the Connecticut Humanities
Council,” said Rovezzi.
In addition to highlighting events taking place during the two-day
celebration period, the special edition is expected to feature the writings of
many well known authors, musicians and artists, some of whose works go
back to the 1700s.
