This is an open playgroup for parents/guardians to bring their young ones* to a great big open space and let them run around and play. Bring your own toys or play with what SPARC has provided (no pedal bikes w/ brakes allowed at this time, only strider bikes & scooters). This class is available Mondays, Wednesdays & Saturdays from 10-11:30am (unless a special event interferes). Cost is $4.00 per child.* This means toddlers not in kindergarten, or not of school-age yet (~5 yrs. old & younger) -- older siblings are allowed but need to be careful of the littles!
***Please bring a pair of clean indoor shoes for you & your child to change into (in the entryway). Thank you for helping to keep our new floor looking good!***
Story time with readings, crafts, sometimes science experiments and/or guest speakers. We will be doing it every Wednesday through the school year and will just break for times when school is out like over the holidays.
Call For Art! HCOA is now accepting art drop offs for our Fun with 5x6x7 community group show, through 5pm November 1st!
It’s time again for HCOA’s annual 5X7 show. Started in 2018, the Fun with 5×7 show is about challenging artists to experiment or try something new. This year, we’re adding a third dimension to experiment with. The Fun with 5x6x7 offers artists the same freedom to create with more variety in shape and size.
There are no prompts or subjects and is open to all mediums, so artists can follow their own inspiration. The show is open to all ages and abilities, and we invite everyone in our community to take a chance and create something. Each artist may submit up to 6 works.
Learn more and submit your work online at https://homerart.org/event/2025-fun-with-5x6x7/, artwork must be turned in to the office by 5pm November 1st!
When hunger weighs heavily, it’s hard to focus, hard to thrive, and hard to stay well. At the Anchor Point Food Pantry, we meet that need with empathy, respect, and cheerful hearts—because no one should have to face hunger alone. We provide a weekly food line and meals, monthly TEFAP commodities, holiday food boxes, summer produce, hungry kids' weekend meal packs and a kids' summer lunch bag program. Phone: 907-299-8437 - email: apfp.266@gmail.com // If you consider donating, thank you! This helps!
