Arts Commission
On Friday, October 10th, the Tredyffrin Township Arts Commission held a reception at the Tredyffrin Township Building to showcase the vibrant creativity of artists from our community. The exhibit runs until December 11, 2025, so there's ample time to visit the Township Building to view the various pieces of art!
