In the gallery this January, we welcome local resident and photographer, Tracy LeBlanc.  Tracy moved to Westford at the age of four, graduating from Westford Academy in 1987. She recalls taking pictures of friends and neighbors in Nabnasset as early as age 7, long before digital cameras or cell phones. Her love for Westford has been recorded through the years in her photos of the town’s trails, parades, and community events. Meet LeBlanc and at the Gallery Open House on Saturday, Jan. 14 from 2to 4 p.m., and on Sundays in January from noon until 2 p.m.
