Somers Cultural Commission


NOTE: Until May, the monthly committee meetings will be held in the Town Hall Conference Room. Please join us there. In May, the meetings will return to Piedmont Hall.

The Cultural Commission was established in 1993. Its mission is to promote cultural programs and activities in Somers.

The Commission sponsors varied and interesting events throughout the year. It receives a small stipend from the town, other funds are raised independently and by receiving donations from the people in town. Click here for details about the Cultural Commission.
