Are all hands on the pump?

Commentary by Suzette Standring
New England snow is the lay of our land, and the Boston area is coming to a standstill.  While “unprecedented snow,” “snow budget exceeded,” “where to put the snow,” and “aging infrastructure”are issues, I question if every hand is truly to the pump.

Miriam Wotiz to exhibit work at MPL

Screen Shot 2015-02-08 at 11.56.30 AMDuring the months of February, March and April, artist Miriam Wotiz will display her work at the Milton Public Library in the first floor gallery. Mrs. Wotiz is known for her spontaneous and strikingly luminous paintings. She works intuitively and with feeling, interpreting nature rather than imitating it. Her paintings capture the fleeting effects of light and color and allow the viewer to participate in a visual experience.
