Litchfield’s [1] Annual Gallery on the Green (860/567-8298, www.jwclitchfieldhills.org [2], Jun.) isn’t a permanent gallery, but a yearly installment of more than 100 artists and artisans who set up shop to exhibit original watercolors, oil paintings, jewelry, and other crafts.
The Litchfield Jazz Festival (Goshen County Fairgrounds, 116 Old Middle Rd./Rte. 63, Goshen, 860/567-4162, www.litchfieldjazzfest.com [3], Aug.) is only a dozen years old—even so, it has drawn an impressive roster of jazz greats for music under the stars.
