The new show in the Claire and Robert Clements Gallery gives us the rare treat of seeing the home collection of Claire and Bob Clements–the art they created and lived with. Join us for an opening reception Friday, March 20, 4-6pm, where you can greet Bob and enjoy refreshments as you view “Claire and Bob’s Home Collection.” The exhibit runs through May.

Please continue to bring non-perishable food items to Fellowship Hall’s wicker baskets. While all CANtributions are appreciated, in June the Athens Area Emergency Food Bank is especially in need of cold breakfast cereals as well as dry pasta (spaghetti is the favorite) and saltine crackers. To give by credit card, visit uuathensga.org/give and look for “Charitable Giving.” To give by check, make the check out to UUFA and put “CANtributions 1-8016” in the memo line. To learn more, contact justice@uuathensga.org. If you are experiencing food insecurity or know someone in our UUFA community who is, please contact Rev. Pippin (revpippin@uuathensga.org).
