Resident’s are still stunned, as WaterFire caught Sharon by storm Saturday night with an estimated 35,000 people filling the streets of downtown for the inaugural ceremony.
“It’s a small town and it was a heroic project for them to take on and they did it with such style and engagement,” said WaterFire creator Barnaby Evans. “And just everyone coming out for it was just beautiful to see.”
“Never, never in my wildest dreams did I think that something like this could have happened in downtown Sharon. We have worked so hard to try and revitalize downtown Sharon,” added Laura Ackley, General Manager of Donna’s Diner in Sharon.
