RIDGEFIELD Gov. Ned Lamont paid a special visit to Ridgefield on Friday to celebrate the town’s achievement in becoming the first municipality in the state with a designated “cultural district.”
A small, mostly maskless crowd gathered outside The Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum on Main Street for a news conference marking the occasion.
“A lot of people have rediscovered Connecticut . and what makes this state so great,” Lamont said. “It’s our culture, it’s our history, it’s our values. . It just shows you that sometimes there are silver linings, and this is an extraordinary silver lining for the state.”
