Saint Bernadette is a patron of Bridgeport by its every definition: a regular patron of its bars and restaurants, a patron of the arts in every form, a patron of charitable works, and a woman with a taste for fine tequila. In addition to traveling all around the under-reported state of Connecticut in search of the talented, the strange, the motivated, and the needy, Saint Bernadette keeps tabs on the rest of the country and the world through the divine powers of the world wide web, bringing tales and commentary back to the Park City about art, music, food, fashion, politics and community. Saint Bernadette welcomes your opinions, questions, and suggestions as well as your compliments, criticisms and confessions. Please contact her at – bernadette@exoticrecordings.com

INDOOR/OUTDOOR – The perfect kick-off

May 21, 2009 at 12:08 pm by Meredith DiMenna

As I hope by now, ALL of you know, this Saturday marks INDOOR/OUTDOOR – the first of the Sweetport events in downtown Bridgeport. I could not ask for a better first event to hype in this blog. It’s the kind of comprehensive, all-hands-on-deck programming that we always believed was possible in Bridgeport, the Park City, a city perfectly beloved, reviled, celebrated and mocked to reclaim its past glory and greatness. Come on everybody – we have everything we need to make it on the national stage: the waterfront! college kids! a history of organized crime! environmental damage! a mayor busted for drugs!

Please come this weekend – enjoy two days of a program that truly has something for everyone – preppies, hippies, families, hipsters, punks, bankers, bikers, pastors, and, of course, circus freaks.
