New Milford Green


The lovely town of New Milford is about half an hour north of Ridgefield.  Like many New England towns, it has a central green honoring town residents who served in national wars.


A bandstand is a central feature.


A Connecticut-based artist, John Clymer, painted 80+ covers for The Saturday Evening Post.  A 1953 cover by Clymer shows New Milford Green and the bandstand.  The cover is displayed in the library.
