The Starburst Committee and its Premier Sponsor, Leominster Credit Union, would like to invite everyone to Leominster’s annual summer event, Starburst 2021, to be held on the upper part of Doyle Field on Saturday, Aug. 7.
Gates open at 4:30 p.m. Rain date is Sunday, Aug. 8.
This year, it is a celebration of the reopening of the state from the COVID-19 pandemic. Hopefully, we can then celebrate getting back to our normal lives.
For the kids, there will be a magic show by magician Ben Pratt, U.S. flags and light sticks donated by the Leominster Rotary Club, plus great food provided by the Rotary Club and vendors on adjacent streets.

Kathryn Swantee is spreading her artistic wings with a new business venture, Concepts Art Studio, which opened at 285 Central St., Suite 217 in Leominster last month.
“I’ve been a professional visual artist for my entire working life, as well as a teacher, and creating a space for area students and emerging artists was a lifelong dream,” Swantee stated in a press release.
Swantee, an award-winning artist, offers group and private art instruction for students aged 10 and up in multiple mediums, as well as the sale of artwork in the gallery and art events. Scholarship is funding available for students thanks to a grant from Leominster Cultural Council.
