MORENCI — The Morenci Downtown Development Authority is expanding its events this summer with the launch of Summer Saturdays, a monthly event series designed to celebrate community, support local businesses, and bring families downtown.
Events will take place once a month from June through August, featuring themed activities, live music, and family-friendly experiences.
MORENCI — Morenci resident David Green was walking through the town’s Oak Grove Cemetery last winter when he thought to himself, “There must be 20 different species of trees in this place.”
He discovered that his estimate was low, and now he’s ready to lead the public on a tree walk to show what he’s found. The walk will begin at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, May 15.
MORENCI — Lifelong learners can take advantage of Road Scholar’s free online lecture program at Stair District Library in Morenci. The lectures are 45 to 60 minutes long and include a question and answer session with the instructor.
MORENCI — Letterpress printer Amos Paul Kennedy doesn’t consider himself an artist. It’s too stuffy of a word in his opinion.
He does make art, however, insisting that art is something you make that you like.
FAYETTE, Ohio — A fundraiser for the Fayette Opera House, Down Home at the Opera House and You’re Full of Baloney, will take place on Saturday, April 26.
MORENCI — He’s not exactly sure what the title of the movie was that was showing — although he can describe the basics of the plot to this day — but Tim Newsom, owner of Morenci’s Rex Theatre, can point out the very spot in the building where he sat while on his first date.
