From Galleries at LynnArts (GALA): Light can be many things: illumination, clarity, warmth, memory, truth, energy, or transformation. In times of uncertainty or transition, light becomes both a metaphor and a material—something we seek, create, carry, or become. This exhibition invites artists to explore light in its physical, emotional, spiritual, and symbolic forms. We welcome works that investigate light as presence or absence, as softness or intensity, as hope, revelation, resistance, or quiet endurance. Interpretations may be abstract or representational, subtle or bold, personal or collective.
Exhibit runs from February 27 – March 18, 2026.

Admission to the Galleries is always free. Gallery hours are as follows:

Wednesday-Friday from 3-7pm
Saturday from 12-4pm
Appointments also available

From Unitarian Universalist Church of Greater Lynn (UUCGL): Did you know New England is warming faster—and losing its snow cover more quickly—than global averages
Rising seas, intensifying droughts, and severe flooding are no longer distant possibilities; they’re emerging across our region right now. Yes, we’ll still see those classic bitter winters and heavy snowfalls, but they’re becoming fewer and farther between.
Join us on Monday, March 16 at 6:30pm for a free, eye‑opening presentation with climate researcher Professor Stephen Young, who will break down the changes already reshaping New England, the science behind these shifts, and what the future may hold for our communities, landscapes, and seasons.
This talk draws from Professor Young’s recent publication in the journal Climate (December 2025).
This is a free event, but registration is required. Save your spot now for this presentation you won’t want to miss! Ample free parking. For more information, click here.
