Contradance for all ages and abilities, all dances taught, no partner needed.

"Off the Charts", a Portland-based jazz quartet, will be playing the last Sunday of each month through May 2025 at brunch at Lenny's Pub, Hawkes Plaza, 1274 Bridgton Road, Westbrook, ME. Brunch is from 10-2; music, 11 to 1:30.

“Off the Charts” is Kenny Gaspar, piano and trumpet; Rick Bernard, bass; Rusty Quinn, drums; and Mike Banas, guitar. While their influences include everything from Bebop to Blues to Chet Baker, their primary repertoire is drawn from that genre of music known as the “Great American Songbook” – the canon of significant early 20th century jazz standards and pop tunes (Ellington, Porter, Kern, Mercer, Arlen, et al.)

ArtVan is a mobile art program that brings hands-on creative art opportunities for self-expression, personal growth, and fun. All of their projects aim to inspire art-making with a variety of materials to explore. ArtVan programs engage all age groups, encourage time outside and reduce screen time, help youth stay connected, diminish stress, and provide release for unvented expressions of emotions, such as loss and confusion.

ArtVan began in 2004 and has provided therapeutic art and strengths-based programs to under-resourced neighborhoods.
