February Reflections

We were able to pack a lot into the short month, with a full calendar of in-person and Zoom programs. Some of the highlights were:

The Weston Community League hosted a fabulous party for us the Friday before Valentine's Day, and on the holiday itself, we handed out locally made gourmet cupcakes, which many folks brought to friends.

Dr. Marc Wein presented on bone health and osteoporosis in, Building Better Bones;

Local resident Paul Angiolillo presented on Public Art: It's History and Many Current Forms and Expressions;
