Summer is drawing to a close, and the air is getting that crisp feeling as fall makes its way to New England. And Autumn in Newton is a time for community, celebration and good food.

There is a huge range of great events in Newton this fall for all ages and tastes. Play mini-golf at the library. Learn about hawks and monarch butterflies. Watch Disney films, Hercule Poirot, or a Finnish comedy about women having to quickly remake 100 liters of beer for their sister’s wedding.

Hear jazz and Irish fiddle, and sing along to folk music. Dip your own candles. See a demonstration of making Italian Jewish food.
