Blobfest became national news on Tuesday, July 16, when The New York Times featured an extensive article on Blobfest’s 25th anniversary event in their digital edition. The article highlights the grassroots beginnings of the 3-day festival, and includes heartwarming stories from long-time Colonial Theatre and Blobfest supporters Duane and Mary Zehring and an original 1958 The Blob extra, Catherine Brodecki, who joined Saturday night’s run-out.
