Hosted by Hospicare, in partnership with Kathy Lucas Movement Arts, and co-collaborator Carol S. James, Moving Stories of Grief is an evening of movement performances offered as meditations on grief. The performances grew through a weekly series of workshops led by Kathy Lucas and Carol S. James, inviting community members to explore grief through story and movement.
In addition to the performance Hospicare will be hosting a 'Museum of Ordinary Things" in the lobby and performance space. An homage created by community members, sharing memories of loved one through artifacts of their time together “And although the objects themselves are no replacement for the people we ache for, they are a reminder of the fact that those people were here, and they mattered and will be missed.” (Museum of Ordinary People by Mike Gayle)

Come have fun with fellow Newfielders as we team up to clean up our road sides for the 2026 Newfield Green Up Day. This year's event is scheduled for Sat., April 18. This event is a fun way for friends, classmates, organization members, and family to work together toward the common goal of cleaning up the roadsides of our town. As usual, the registration table will be set up from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. in front of Newfield Town Hall on Sat., April 18. It is there that each group will register for what section of road they are cleaning up so that the highway department knows where to pick up what we collect and deliver to Tompkins County Recycling and Solid Waste Center on the Monday following Greenup Day.
