WESTFIELD – The Mass Cultural Council has designated Westfield as one of three new cultural districts, along with Holyoke and Watertown, capping a recent two and a half year effort by city officials, area arts organizations, individual artists and the Westfield Merchants Association. For some, the effort goes back more than a decade.
“This is something we’ve been working on for a long, long time. I’m excited to cross the finish line,” said Community Development Director Peter Miller. “I feel like we’ve accomplished something.”
