On Sunday, May 3, drop by The Gallery at the L.E. Shore Library between 2-4pm for a relaxed art pop up with Beverley Smith, featuring new work from her third year at the La Macina Di San Cresci artist residency in Italy.

Since 2007, supporters around the world have been switching off for Earth Hour each year. For 2026, people are encouraged to go beyond the switch off – and give an hour for Earth too. Anyone, anywhere can take part by spending 60 minutes doing something - anything - positive for our planet. You can reconnect with nature, learn more about the environment, help restore our planet, or inspire others to take action. As long as we each use one hour to make meaningful impact, we can create the Biggest Hour for Earth together!
