Westport Connecticut
Westport offers the best of
all worlds to a diverse and culturally exciting
population. Located on Long Island Sound, the
breath-taking oceanfront scenery and charming
country landscape, attractive amenities and
comfortable commutes to metropolitan centers
attract families, executives and people from the
creative arts. Impressive waterfront properties
grace the coastline while magnificent estates,
country-houses and streamlined contemporaries
dot the countryside.
In the summer, Levitt
Pavilion, on the Saugatuck River, features a
variety of family concerts and performances, and
the Westport Playhouse hosts professional
touring companies. Chamber music concerts are
performed by the Westport Friends of Music in
the autumn and winter, and the Green Farms
Center for the Arts offers theater, music and
art exhibits throughout the year.
Education in Westport also
benefits from the generous support and
involvement of residents. The public schools
emphasize a strong academic curriculum with an
ever-widening spectrum of enriching programs as
students progress. Both college preparatory and
vocational paths are offered.
