Norwood's Fifty-Bell Memorial Carillon was cast by Gillett and Johnston, Bellfounders, Croyden, England and installed in Memorial Tower in 1928. The instrument was a gift to his fellow townspeople from the late Walter F. Tilton. All performances take place on the lawn of the Norwood Town Hall, across from the Town Common. The Navy Showband Summerfest is sponsored by the Norwood Arts Council, a non-profit organization comprised of citizens dedicated to promoting the performing arts. It is through the efforts of these members, together with contributions from the Town of Norwood, local businesses, and private citizens, that Summerfest is possible.
