With Bella Halsted. Creative expression and are is a healing way to add color to your life and feel joy! No special talents required to have fun.

The Economic Development Forum will offer attendees a first look at two draft reports that provide a wealth of data on which the economic development strategy will be based. The local economic indicators report includes demographic information about Amherst residents, data on the largest industry sectors, businesses, and nonprofit organizations in the town, and a snapshot of Amherst’s commercial and residential building stock. The retail market analysis takes a deep dive into retail sales of Amherst businesses and spending habits of Amherst residents to identify the types of retail most likely to succeed in Amherst. After reviewing the data in the draft reports, forum attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions and provide feedback.

Join us on Saturday, April 28 to experience Mabel Loomis Todd's Amherst--from her earliest residence at the Amherst House hotel to her final resting place in Wildwood Cemetery. This extended tour given from Mrs. Todd's perspective will be narrated by Dr. Julie Dobrow as we travel in motorbus comfort with stops at the Homestead and Evergreens, the Observatory, and Wildwood Cemetery. Be prepared to learn about the artistic and literary achievements that made Mabel extraordinary in her own time, and a fascinating person to study today. General tickets are $65. With a $100 benefactor ticket, you receive first choice of seats on the bus and a copy of Mabel Loomis Todd: Her Contributions to the Town of Amherst by Millicent Todd Bingham. This tour requires physical ability to get on and off the bus, navigate steps and to walk several hundred yard distances over rough ground. Funds raised from these tours will support the mission of the Amherst Historical Society.
