NEW YORK, NY – The Westhampton Beach Project is the 5th annual free-to-the-public event that brings a combination of contemporary dance, music, and delicious eats from local Long Island restaurants. Starting at 8 PM, the two-day event will be hosted on the Great Lawn on Main Street in Westhampton Beach, NY on July 28th & 29th.

The project was conceptualized by President of the Musical Mime Theater, Steven Colucci, an artist, working in the arts for over 46 years – he worked closely with the famous Marcel Marceau. A local Westhampton resident, Colucci has made it his personal mission to expose the younger generation to some of the art forms he has spent so many years of his life dedicated to studying.

“We imagine things, all things, and then begins the creative process, which is the Westhampton Beach Project 2023,” said Colucci.

The night will kick off on July 28th, where celebrated singer Chris Ruggiero will open the weekend. Chris Ruggiero gained national attention when he performed on one of PBS-TV’s broadcast specials.
