Community Calendar

The Anchor Point Food Pantry Food Line is open on Fridays from 4-6pm with a food line and a meal.
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.
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.

SECOND SATURDAY AT THE PRATT
Saturday, April 11th | 11am – 4pm

Get ready to warm your belly *and* your heart at the Anchor Point Food Pantry’s --Chili & Cornbread Dinner! Join us at the Anchor Point VFW for an evening of good food, good neighbors, and the kind of laughter that makes you forget you’re wearing your “public‑facing” sweatpants.

We’ll have hearty chili, golden cornbread, appetizers, door prizes, a delectable dessert auction, and a silent auction full of treasures you didn’t know you needed until you see them. Every dollar raised helps the pantry purchase food and keep it safely stored at proper temperatures.

Come for the chili, stay for the desserts, and leave knowing you helped keep a neighbor fed, safe, and smiling -- a meaningful difference for them during a difficult time

Homer, Alaska – Tamara Ann Burgh is Artist in Residence at Bunnell Street Arts Center April 1-29, 2026. Burgh’s exhibit of watercolor illustrations and woodblock prints opens on First Friday, April 3 from 5-7pm with an artist talk at 6pm. During her residency she will lead a watercolor workshop April 15 from 6 to 8 pm. Register at BunnellArts.org.

Artist Statement

“I discovered the book “Alaskan Igloo Tales” (c. 1974, illustrations by G. Agupuk) years ago while working in Nome, AK’s Indian Education Art and Culture Program. At that time, the stories in this book felt strange and distant from modern Native culture and experience.

My self-studies in myth, history, Native cultures, and spirituality renewed my interest in the fascinating and inspiring stories in “Alaskan Igloo Tales.” I’ve chosen to visually reinterpret the book’s Inupiaq-identifying stories based on my new understanding, gained through studying Joseph Campbell’s mythic language and symbols.

This project started with two residencies at IAIA in Santa Fe and continued with a residency at Makotaay Art Village in Taiwan. I’ve illustrated all thirty stories in watercolor. These watercolor sketches serve as composition and color studies for moku hanga, a Japanese woodblock-style printmaking process.”

South Peninsula Hospital is sponsoring open walks again this year! All are welcome to these open walks (strollers, elders, walking sticks, wheel chairs, ect.). No sign up is required. Some Mondays we will also offer health education opportunities such flu shots, blood pressure checks, surveys, and more.

Come play soccer, shoot hoops, toss a ball, ride a scooter, play ping pong, or bring a (clean) scooter or strider bike to ride around on, and just be active! This is your time to do what you’d like in an open environment.

This class is $4.00 pp and is open to all ages (unaccompanied minors must be at least in 3rd grade w/ parents' permission & signing of SPARC waiver). ***Please check the current schedule for updated days & times, since they fluctuate throughout the school year***

Sorry, NO roller skates, skateboards, pedal bikes w/ brakes or motorized toys are allowed at this time.

***Please send your child with a pair of clean indoor shoes to change into (in the entryway). Thank you for helping to keep our new floor looking good!***
