The Norwalk senior living community celebrated the annual “Paint the Night Purple.

The event benefits the Alzheimer's Association. It was an evening of line dancing at the Bridges by EPOCH center.

Attendees enjoyed live music by the Gunsmoke, a local country band. They also got to enjoy food, wine and a silent auction.

"Events like these are so important to raise awareness about the disease and what we do here at Bridges, and of course to raise money and have fun," said Addie Ricci, executive director of EPOCH.

The funds raised will be donated when Bridges by EPOCH participates in the Walk to End Alzheimer's at Calf Pasture Beach in October.
