We welcome this spring 2021 with anticipation and hope. As we begin to emerge from a long period of upheaval, our greatest takeaways are: together, it is easier to overcome challenges, and staying current with LOCAL information is crucial for the community!
As a Community Magazine, we truly walk the talk when we say our focus is keeping LOCAL businesses and thousands of readers connected.
Throughout 2020 we heavily promoted LOCAL businesses on our social media platforms to increase visibility and disseminate information, articles, coupons, etc., keeping our readers well informed.
And we continue to stay laser-focused on LOCAL!
This issue we are proud to CELEBRATE WOMEN OWNED BUSINESSES!
These women, armed with strength and determination, have worked hard to sail through the tough times this year or have had the enterprise to see opportunities and launch new businesses. Hats off to them!
Please look for the WOMEN OWNED logo on their ads and join me, as a WOMEN OWNED business myself, in honoring and supporting them!
Winner Winner!
Our Bridgewater-Somerville Spot the Fake ad winner is Dom Imbesi of Bridgewater. Dom won a gift certificate from HappiNest Antiques.
Local artist, Rebecca Rosenheck, adorns our front cover with an award-winning pastel painting entitled “Spring On My Windowsill”. Rebecca is an artist painting from life and trying to capture the light. She states, ”Inspiration for this painting came at the beginning of March, after a long winter, when there was still snow on the ground and I was awaiting spring blooms. Purchasing the first daffodil buds available, I set them up on the windowsill and waited for the late afternoon sun to shine through the petals to paint their gorgeous luminous color.” Please read Rebecca’s impressive bio on page 8.
