Events like Bingo are classic – and when they’re for a good cause, it’s a win-win. Check out the Lions Club Bingo Night Friday, June 5.
Communities across the country are preparing to celebrate America’s 250th birthday, and Kent is putting together an impressive lineup of programs, lectures, exhibits, and events.
One that particularly caught our attention is the upcoming “Americans Who Tell the Truth” exhibit on Golden Falcon Field.
Featuring artwork inspired by individuals who demonstrated courage, integrity, and a commitment to democratic ideals, the exhibit promises to be both thought-provoking and visually stunning.
It offers an opportunity to reflect on the principles upon which our country was founded while exploring the stories of Americans who have helped shape its ongoing journey.
If you’re looking for an interesting America250-related outing this summer, this exhibit may be worth adding to your calendar.
