Fidelity House is celebrating 50 years of service to youth in 2005!  The Arlington community is helping us celebrate our golden anniversary in a fun and unique way as a sponsor, artist or friendly admirer of our “kid” art.  This may through November, three dimensional fiberglass “kid” goat sculptures—painted and decorated by Arlington area artists are appearing monthly on the Fidelity House rooftop to greet everyone who passes by.  Come on by & drop in for more information about Fidelity House’s past, present and future!
