Behind-the-scenes look at Ansonia's 'Rock the Valley'

Rich DiCarlo, chief organizer of Rock the Valley, spray paints spaces allotted for vendor booths Friday afternoon at Jarvis Field in the Nolan Athletic Complex on Wakelee Avenue in Ansonia.

The festival will run from 4-10 p.m. Saturday and feature live music, food, a beer garden, artists, a kid zone with bounce houses, fireworks, and more than 50 vendors.

Admission is $5 for adults; free for children under 15.

Ansonia Mayor David S. Cassetti announced Friday that all proceeds from the festival will be given to the two Ansonia families who tragically lost their six-year old daughters this week in separate motor vehicle accidents.
