On Saturday, June 9th, well over 250 people paid tribute to the late Representative Chris Walsh who lost his long battle with cancer last month.

He was a staunch ally to artists of all disciplines and to the art community. He helped so many and made our Commonwealth a much better place.

The Milford Daily News has a wonderful article worth reading about the event:

He will be missed dearly.
