The RBP is committed to showcasing America’s First Public Beach; as part of that, each year, the RBP hosts its annual Art Festival at the plaza adjacent to the Christine and John Markey Memorial Pedestrian Bridge to do just that; showcase America’s First Public Beach. The event features over twenty art exhibitors, live music, a live art competition, as well as children’s art lessons while drawing in crowds over 1,000 people. While the RBP is disappointed that it was not able to host the event in 2020, we are excited to announce that we will be awarding a scholarship to a Revere High School student. In partnership with the City of Revere and the Community Development Block Grant, a portion of the funds raised through the event, are dedicated to providing Revere High School students looking to pursue an art degree in college with the opportunity to apply for a scholarship. This year, RBP will be awarded Aleli Calle with a $4,000 scholarship as AWARDS | SEE Page 10 Pictured from left to right: Erin Lynch (Executive Director, RBP), Linda DeMaio (RBP), Adrienne Maguire (RBP), Mayor Brian Arrigo, Aleli Calle, Olga Tucare (mother), Jeff Turco (President, RBP), Kathleen Heiser (RBP), Carol Tye (RBP), and Charlie Giuff rida (RBP).
