Starting tonight, Norwood resident and frequent Norwood News contributor Adi Talwar will be showing a selection of his photos for an exhibition at Illuminated Metropolis Gallery in Chelsea, 547 W. 27th St., Suite 529 (between 10th and 11th avenues). There will be an opening reception tonight from 6 to 8 p.m. Talwar says he will be showing 15 photos, most of them neighborhood shots from the northwest Bronx (like the one above from this year’s Jerome-Gun Hill BID Street Festival) that you may have seen in the Norwood News print edition or online. A smaller portion will be more abstract compositions (see below) that Talwar developed at his apartment near the Williamsbridge Oval. So if you’re free tonight, head to Chelsea and support a local artist. And if you’re not free tonight, you can head down to the gallery any time between now and the end of December when the exhibition ends.

Welcome to the Norwood News, a bi-weekly community newspaper that primarily serves the northwest Bronx communities of Norwood, Bedford Park, Fordham and University Heights. Through our Breaking Bronx blog, we focus on news and information for those neighborhoods, but aim to cover as much Bronx-related news as possible. Founded in 1988 by Mosholu Preservation Corporation, a not-for-profit affiliate of Montefiore Medical Center, the Norwood News began as a monthly and grew to a bi-weekly in 1994. In September 2003 the paper expanded to cover University Heights and now covers all the neighborhoods of Community District 7. The Norwood News exists to foster communication among citizens and organizations and to be a tool for neighborhood development efforts. The Norwood News runs the Bronx Youth Journalism Heard, a journalism training program for Bronx high school students.
