If you are in need of help, food or anything please let us know via email or phone and we will try to assist you or get you in touch with someone who can. In this time of isolation it is important for all of us to stay in contact with neighbors and friends. Stay safe and practice social distancing for the good of all.

A Sad Announcement
It is with great sadness, that we learned of the recent passing of Don Longabucco. Don and Rita have been mainstays of Arts on the Lake since its beginning. Don was a wonderful artist whose collages are in the collections of many throughout our community. His humor, gentle manner and wry smile will be sorely missed. If you would like make donations in memory of Don, Rita asks that you do so either to St. Jude's Hospital or Arts on the Lake. Rita will be letting us know when a gathering to remember Don will be scheduled.
The Kent Library will be exhibiting his wonderful art work during the month of January.
