North Adams, Ma – In an effort to revitalize downtown North Adams, elected officials, educators and artists have collaborated to create the Down Street Art program. Every Thursday this summer, empty storefronts are converted into art galleries featuring local and national talent. The event draws crowds from all over the region. WAMC's Berkshire Bureau Chief Charlie Deitz was there for the opening night.
