1st Day Hike Mount Francis Center for Spirituality Free  |  8:30 a.m., 9:30 a.m. A first day hike is usually performed on the first day of the new year. But, it’s not too late to embrace 2022. This “first day hike” was pushed to this weekend due to inclement weather. There are two hikes, one for early-risers and the other for… slightly less early risers. You’ll be guided on an hour-long trek through Mount St. Francis’ nature sanctuary, featuring a prairie, woodlands and a lake.

SUNDAY, Jan. 9

Sunday Showcase - ‘Bree Wayy: Promise Witness Remembrance’ At Speed Cinema Speed Art Museum Free  |  3:30 p.m. The Speed will be screening Dawn Porter’s half-hour documentary about the creation of Amy Sherald’s painting of Breonna Taylor and how the Speed’s “Promise Witness Remembrance” exhibit came to be. Bring your vax cards or negative test results.
