Laura Saravia, Chair and Creative Director of Arts on the Avenues, said, “Bringing this art event to Larchmont has helped to nurture local Westchester artists while providing a creative way for merchants to find new customers and it’s had a residual effect on the community beyond the month-long event.”

Nancy White, President Larchmont Chamber of Commerce, added, “Arts on the Avenues was conceived to support the local artist community and attract visitors/shoppers/diners to Larchmont. The month-long event has succeeded beyond our expectations, attracting audiences from all over Westchester to see, learn and buy in our wonderful downtown.”
