Wider Horizons Events and Information
I’m going to send out the photos, bios, and contact info for five of our newest members later today—separately.
Women’s Coffee, Wednesday, April 2, 10:30 am: At Eleanor Dill’s home, 919 21st Ave E (an added thrill are the amazing cherry trees in bloom).
Men’s Coffee, Wednesday, April 2, 10:30 am: At Ada’s on 15th Ave E, Contact Michael Kischner if you need a ride or have questions. If some of us arrive a bit early, we can help staff prepare the room and table for us.
Thursday morning’s All-Member Zoom is happening, per usual, this Thursday, April 3 at 9:30 am. Sue Lerner will send out the link and questions on Wednesday.
Sunday Arboretum Walk, Sunday, April 6, led by Dick Zerbe. Meet at 9 am at the Graham Visitors Center.
Happy Hour, Sunday, April 6, 4-6 pm, at Jimmy’s (Broadway and Madison). Free parking and call me if you’ve never used it before—it’s a bit tricky.
Sharing
There’s a show at the Pratt Fine Art Gallery, 1902 S. Main St., April 5 & 6, 10 am – 5 pm: Micki Lippe’s scarves; Judith Bird’s clothing, and Jane Drucker’s jewelry. 25% of the proceeds will be donated to Pratt.
From Margret Buchmann: There are all kinds of places where we can find hope and tenderness in actions which don’t seem to change anything. Honoring our humanity and unity even so.

Supplement: The five people described in the attachment joined at varying times. Jane is a brand-new member, and the others have just recently sent in their photos and bios.
Enjoy meeting them and, please, welcome them to our village.
