St. Patrick’s Soup Supper: Wed. March 17 at 6 p.m. at the Witt Senior Center. We’re all Irish when it comes to St. Patrick’s Day so plan on coming out and enjoy good food and great conversation. Don’t bring anything but a love donation and be sure to wear green or risk getting pinched. Or maybe don’t wear green and ....well, just get out and enjoy!

Dichroic Glass Light Sculpture by Ray Howlett: March 19 - May 2 at the Dane G. Hansen Museum in Logan. Dichroic is a big word with a big impact. Dichroic glass art is an original American art movement of new materials. It’s not a pigment or dye - it’s optically controlled wavelengths of light caused from ultra-thin layers of mineral oxides deposited onto glass. A sheet of clear glass transforms into a colored transparent mirror that reflects one color while at the same time transmits the opposite color through the coating and glass. It’s a mesmerizing, spectacular medium and a prolific, earth conscious artist. For more info, call 785-689-4846 or visit www.hansenmuseum.org
