On Thursday November 12th, we’ll be bringing Stewbilation 2 to the Roxbury Arts Group for the Sponsors Dinner – an event RAG hosts for area businesses and organizations to promote sponsorship of the arts in our region.

If you are a local business owner – big or small – or interested in sponsoring arts in the Roxbury area, come to the Roxbury Arts Center on Vega Mtn. Road at 5:30pm. We’ll be serving Catskill Stew, Black Bean Stoup, smoked chicken wings, pulled chicken and – of course – our famous pulled pork. Wine and Beer will also be served along with other appetizers as RAG discusses their annual sponsorship program. This is all in an effort to convince you that becoming a Roxbury Arts Group Business Sponsor has lots of hidden benefits.

Call 607-326-7908 for more information about this exciting event.
