The City of Yonkers will celebrate its burgeoning status as an arts destination on May 20 at the 9th annual Yonkers Arts Weekend (YAW). The event, which attracts upwards of 10,000 people each year, gives visitors an opportunity to experience the creative spirit that has transformed Yonkers over the years.

For the second summer, five renowned cultural arts organizations are collaborating to give Westchester residents and visitors a chance to experience the arts at a discounted rate.

Over the past month, ArtsNews has highlighted the winners of its annual Arts Awards, which recognize people and organizations that have had significant impact on the arts and culture sector in Westchester County.
