Spring Bouquet
Artists' Reception
at the Byrne Gallery

The Byrne Gallery is proud to present Spring Bouquet, an exhibition by three local artists who are all new to the Gallery.  Each uses a different medium in their floral paintings and expresses color in their own unique way.  Margaret Farr uses the medium of watercolor on paper to render her sometimes delicate, sometimes bold floral and botanical compositions. Cathleen Lawless turns to oil on canvas to convey her delight in the new season while Carolyn Marshall Wright chooses water based media to convey the energy of Spring.  The exhibit will begin on March 4th and continue through Sunday, March 29th.  There will be a reception for the artists on Saturday, March 14th from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.  The exhibition and reception are both open to the public and everyone is cordially invited to attend.

Fire Hydrant

Help us out – be on the lookout!
 
The Town has experienced instances where unauthorized contractors have connected to the Town’s water supply at fire hydrants in Town, causing a disturbance in the Town’s water system. Only the Town’s utility operator – Inboden Environmental Services (IES) – public safety officials, or contractors authorized by IES may use a fire hydrant. In addition, there are specific hydrants that should be used by outside contractors in order to minimize disturbances or damage to our system.
 
If you see any suspicious activity around a fire hydrant, please call the Town Office immediately at 540-687-5152. If the situation occurs after hours, you may call the On-Duty Police Officer at 540-216-9787.

2020 Census: 

Shaping Loudoun's Future


Why is the Census Important for Loudoun County?
An accurate count of Loudoun County residents is important to the community in many ways. The count affects the allocation of federal funding to the county and affects how legislative districts are drawn, which can impact the number of seats that the state has in the U.S. House of Representatives.
Your response ensures we have the resources to build stronger communities!
