February is Black History month. In recognition, HCA proudly announces the premiere event of our Arts Around the World cultural series.
This Saturday, February 23 at 1 p.m. join us for a super-fun pan-African dance workshop. It's free for students and HCA members, and just $10 for the public.
The series highlights artists and programs that otherwise might not be readily available in MetroWest. As a member of the Hispanic community and the HCA staff, I am particularly eager to open opportunities for people of color to share cultural heritage through the arts.

Dear Veterans and Friends:
Hopkinton veterans will gather for breakfast on 1 March 2019, at 0900 hours, at the Senior Center to enjoy hot chow, and warm camaraderie.
Our comrades who passed away during February will be remembered, and the condition of those who are on "Sick Call" will be updated. It is encouraging that several veterans are generous with their time, and visit and/or send cards to our ailing buddies. More of us should do this. Keep up the good work!
