Join us every Wednesday for our Grief and Loss Support Group in the Hospice of Homer sunroom.
Join local public health nurse Emily Sears for an engaging introduction to public health and its role in keeping communities healthy. This talk will explore what public health is, why it matters in everyday life, and the unique history of public health in Alaska. Emily will also share insight into the work public health nurses do—from disease prevention and health education to community outreach and support—and how these efforts help protect and strengthen the well-being of our community.
After, we’ll have an hour of Yoga led by Bhakti Wojcik. As always, free soup and bread will be provided, and all are welcome!

The Glacier Quartet will present three distinctive string quartets, each reflecting a unique national character and illustrating the evolution of the string quartet into the twentieth century. The program includes Franz Schubert’s Quartettsatz, Leoš Janáček’s First String Quartet (The Kreutzer), inspired by Tolstoy’s novella The Kreutzer Sonata, and Maurice Ravel’s masterful impressionistic string quartet, dedicated to his teacher Gabriel Fauré. These works are both technically demanding and rarely performed, making this live concert a special opportunity to hear them in Homer.Proceeds from the beer and wine sales to benefit Homer Opus
