Flagpole Photographers Camera Club has opened its annual “Newtown & Beyond Exhibition,” showcasing work by club members at Newtown Municipal Center.

On view weekdays to December 30, the exhibit highlights captivating moments from Newtown and beyond, with many pieces available for purchase. Nearly 300 works by ten photographers make up the exhibition this year.

Readers are invited to visit the municipal center weekdays between 8 am and 4:30 pm to view the art.

The photos can also be viewed evenings when Town board and commission meetings are conducted at the municipal center.
