MCA/City Arts Creates Music Ambassador Program

The Middletown Commission on the Arts/City Arts & Culture Office has announced the inaugural awardees of the title Music Ambassador for the City of Middletown.

Dave Downs and Rani Arbo are the City’s first ambassadors.

A ceremony proclaiming 

Dave Downs Day on August 27

and

Rani Arbo Day on August 28

will take place in the

Mayor’s Office

Room 209

Municipal Building (City Hall)

245 Dekoven Drive

11 a.m.

Wednesday August 27, 2014

The public is invited to the ceremony.

Please call the Mayor’s Office at 860.638.4801 if you plan to attend.

In addition to being recognized for their valuable artistic and creative contributions, the Music Ambassadors’ music will become the featured ‘music on hold’ for all City phones. While the City strives to answer calls promptly and avoid putting someone on hold, when those occasions do occur the music you will hear is that of our local artists, Dave Downs or Rani Arbo.

The City endeavors to elect similar ambassadors annually, highlighting the great talent that exists within our city limits.
