Open Mic Against Racism
This Friday, June 19, the Windsor Wellness Partnership will be hosting an event for Windsor residents to raise their voices against racism. Citizens are invited to join this open mic event to discuss their experience with racism in Windsor. “Please accompany us by speaking out about your own and/or your family’s experience(s) to help bring awareness to racial and social issues in our community,” says a flier for the event. In addition, for those not comfortable speaking in public, supplies will be made available for those who would rather share by drawing or writing down their experience. Health order guidelines will be followed. For more information, contact ro**********@ya***.com.

Arts camp
Move Over Mozart and Windsor Performing Arts are providing the ultimate camp this summer. The summer camp offers a well-rounded experience with daily activities in visual art, dance, drama and music. Campers will have the opportunity to take a break from the shelter-in-place in a responsible way with all safety precautions. Each day includes uplifting, hands-on, activities that will be enjoyed in both indoor and outdoor settings. Caring and experienced camp leaders will provide instruction to campers with age appropriate material and techniques. Each session will end with a Friday video showcase to share what our campers have learned at camp.
