Greek Fest!

Waterbury's 2013 season of ethnic festivals has begun! Here are photos from this weekend's Greek Festival on Chase Parkway in Waterbury. Also, if you want to check out the gamut of great ethnic food and culture in Waterbury, be sure to visit Library Park on Saturday, May 18, for The Gathering of nearly all the city's ethnic groups.
