It’s my hope that you all had a fabulous holiday season and that you remain safe and in good health to begin the new year of 2022.
The shops, galleries, restaurants, theater, and personal/professional services businesses thank many of you for doing business with them during the difficult days of the pandemic. Your support is a lifeline for every independent business owner and employee.
January has been a time to conclude and tie up any loose ends of 2021 and to finalize programs and events for 2022. We will be hosting Third Friday art walk for the 21st year each month. New art exhibits, arts education and workshops, and musical and theater events will be the main focus in the months ahead. To keep abreast of what is being offered and to register, visit websites and social media pages to receive the latest information.
We look forward to one or more public art projects this year. You will have an opportunity to attend free small concerts in the spring and live music on the Glasstown Plaza during the warm months on Third Fridays. The Village on High is also busy preparing special events at its location in the 500 block of High Street.
Remember to visit the Clay College at Rowan South Jersey on the 300 block. You may sign up for credit or non-credit classes. Workshops are offered there for beginners as well as more advanced ceramic artists.
