Newton Community Pride recently announced the winning artists and their designs for the new Celebrate Newton banners that are now being installed in about 130 locations across the city.
Newton resident artists Leah Kolidas, Adam Proia, Sarah Tomkins, and Sage Widder were selected by a jury of community leaders for their designs celebrating the culture, history, diversity, values, and beauty of the city. Their 15 designs each contain the word “Celebrate” in one of the eight most common languages spoken in Newton: English, Spanish, Portuguese, Mandarin, Russian, Hebrew, Japanese, and Italian.
The Celebrate Newton Banners initiative is presented in partnership with the City of Newton Parks, Recreation & Culture Department. The Village Bank is the presenting sponsor.
