Keynote Address: Women’s Bike Summit – Tuesday, Aug. 15, 6:30 – 7:30 p.m.

Sarah Loring (née Farsace) bikes for independence, strength and peace. As a PE teacher, survivor of both cancer and a hit-and-run, and a Pearl Izumi Crew Member, she's found cycling to be an endless source of "choose your own adventure." Come to the Central Resource Library and get inspired to bike more and invite your friends along for the ride!

Interactive Exhibit: Streets for Everyone – Daily – Ongoing through Aug.18, All Day

Home Street Home is an interactive educational exhibit at the Central Resource Library that explores our streets and public spaces as places where we travel, shop, play, and engage with our communities. Good streets are places that support living well: places that make us safer, healthier, and more productive, places with people and activities that make our lives more interesting, places that help us get to work, school, services, and all of the opportunities that improve our quality of life.

The Home Street Home exhibit is designed to be accessible and interesting to a wide audience including child-friendly activities. It includes five "stations" each with a separate theme and activity.

And much more happening this week …
