Deliver Meals on Wheels
The labor crisis has led to a declining volunteer workforce. How much of a decline? One-third of the Area Agencies on Aging lost at least 50% of their volunteers since 2019! Relying on volunteers helps us serve older adults low- to no-cost meals and helps them remain in their own homes longer.

"Currents" by sculptor Cameron Zebrun opens Jan. 14 at the Northrup King Building, 1500 Jackson St. NE, Studio 395.

Rogue Buddha Gallery, 357 13th Ave. NE. The Eldrich exhibition is the culmination of collaborative paintings by Adam Marx, Jonny Kelson and Matt Franzen.
