Search Dogs Northeast | Tuesday, September 19 at 6:00PM |
|  |
COME MEET SOME SEARCH AND RESCUE DOGS | |
|
Search Dogs Northeast is an all-volunteer organization that works with public safety personnel. Dogs are trained in different styles of search such as live find with and without a lead. They train two to three times a week and are always looking for subjects who would like to go out and sit. Our subjects hide in the open and behind objects. For more information on how to volunteer, please consider attending this event or visit their Facebook page. This event is made possible by members of the Massasoit Amateur Radio Association.
This event is open to the public so bring a friend! During this event, enjoy a meet & greet with the dogs as well as a live search demonstration
After meeting the dogs and seeing them in action, all are welcome to stay for the Massasoit Amateur Radio Association meeting happening immediately thereafter.

Flora T. Little | Artist |
|
|
|
 |
| Lizzie Abelson's art will be on display in the Flora T. Little Art Gallery located on the second floor throughout the month of September. Drop-in any time we're open to check it out. |
|
About the Exhibit:
The spaces depicted in these paintings hover between reality and imagination. While based loosely on actual locations, the artist has taken a great many liberties, rendering them fictitious. Abelson is drawn to quiet, to shadows, to liminality, to scenes that, while vaguely familiar, are often tinged with a slight sense of unease.
|
|
About the Artist

Her junior year was spent abroad with RISD's European Honors Program. She currently lives with her family in Boylston, Massachusetts. Find her on Instagram.
