- Join Tammi Flynn of the Florence Griswold Museum at the Bill Memorial Library at 4 p.m. today as she brings the fanciful world of fairies to the Library. Young readers listen to the story, Fairy Houses by Tracy Kane, before making their own fairy (or two) out of beads, silk flowers, gems and, other "magical" materials. Younger children will need an adult to help them with their project. For more information or to register please call the library at 860-445-0392.
- It’s not too late to get your tickets for the Forks and Corks event at Jonathan Edwards Winery, which they are calling a “farmers market meets wine soiree.” There will be local food represented while the winery harvests and presses this year’s chardonnay crop. The event begins at 6:30 p.m., $20/advance or $25/door and includes glass of your favorite wine, delicious small bites and a chance to watch the best of the Harvest Season!
