Music Fest Coincides With New CD

Singer-songwriter Tom Potosnak is among the performers scheduled to play at the event, which is part of the Westborough Spring Festival.

The exhibit runs until May 10.

The Art and Frame Emporium's newest exhibit features 12 paintings by Back Bay artist Jordan Montgomery. Montgomery said the paintings represent some of her work over the past seven years. Montgomery said she assembled the exhibit after an Emporium employee urged her to sell her art at the store. Montgomery had stopped in with of her paintings for her boyfriend's mother for Christmas.
