Have you seen the more than 100 pink flags flying around Homer and Anchor Point? They honor those who have experienced breast cancer and remind us that early detection - such as clinical breast exams and mammograms - saves lives.
Local businesses and individuals are sponsoring the flags to support access to breast cancer screening at KBFPC which provides reproductive healthcare regardless of ability to pay. If one of our volunteers missed you, please call KBFPC to find out about sponsorship.

Kachemak Bay in Metal Clay: A Coastal Alchemy of Object and Wearable Arts By Carley Conemac is on display in the HCOA Gallery through Monday November 3rd. Gallery hours are 1-5pm Mon-Sat

Kachemak Bay in Metal Clay is a celebration of shoreline memory, texture, and transformation. This exhibit explores the interplay between natural forms and metalwork, preserving beach-found objects—stones, shells, driftwood, sea glass—through the versatile medium of metal clay and traditional metalsmithing techniques.
