SUMMARY:WAMFest “Arts in Health”
DESCRIPTION:WAMFest “Arts in Health” opens today with workshops and an evening open mic\nWAMFest 2026: ARTS in Health\nARTS By The People and Fairleigh Dickinson University presents WAMFest 2026: ARTS in Health; a two-day festival of creative workshops and performances designed to engage Nursing\, Psychology\, and Allied Health students at Fairleigh Dickinson University as well as regional health workers\, while encouraging collaboration with the university’s Arts\, Communication\, and Humanities programs. \nAs New Jersey’s premier event at the intersection of arts and health\, ARTS in Health\, WAMFest celebrates how the arts foster skills — such as creativity\, adaptability\, empathy\, curiosity\, attention to detail\, and communication — that are essential to the field of healthcare. However\, sessions will also invite healthcare students and workers to build community\, process and express job-related stress\, and expand focus and imagination. In other words\, WAMFest 2026: Arts In Health takes a holistic approach to wellness. When those who steward the well-being of others take care of themselves\, they are better equipped for their work. \n\n\nAll workshops are open to the public and barrier free. \n\n\nIf you need assistance\, please reach out to us at info@artsbythepeople.org with questions and accessibility needs. \n\n\nFestival schedule is subject to change.

SUMMARY:Patriots’ Path Development Project meeting
DESCRIPTION:This is a virtual meeting.  Please click on the flyer and scan the QR code to register. \nTrust for Public Land\, in partnership with The Town of Morristown and Morris County Parks Commission\, is launching a community-driven design process for a section of the Patriots’ Path and adjacent open space along Lake Pocahontas. The opportunity: reenvision an underutilized piece of public land into a space that reflects the needs\, history\, and character of the more than 9\,000 people who live with a 10-minute walk of the site. We are seeking community input that will inform early design renderings and ultimately shape a conceptual plan for the space.  We encourage residents\, local organizations\, and stakeholders to attend the upcoming public meeting to share their ideas and help guide the future of this important community asset.
