Congratulations to the Needham Council for Arts and Culture (NCAC) for receiving the 2023 Needham Sparkle Award.

The NCAC brought color and vibrancy to Needham Heights: creating the plan, gaining the approvals, identifying the location, and commissioning Artist Ryan “Arcy” Christenson’s to create the large colorful pansies mural on the side of the Urgent Care building next to Trader Joe’s. In turn, they’ve changed a non-descript building into a landmark, something we can all enjoy for years to come.

The NCAC was honored with this award at Thursday’s Needham Night BBQ at TripAdvisor, sponsored by Needham Bank and Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital – Needham.
