These everyday necessities support health, dignity, and confidence for our neighbors in need. Collected items are distributed through local partner agencies, reaching individuals and families across Cayuga County.

With the community’s support, we can come together to meet basic needs and uplift one another. Join us in making a simple but powerful impact.

How do we reconcile our engineered past with an ecological future?

2025 Erie Canal Artists-in-Residence Sarah Cameron Sunde and Kari Varner explore the Canal from an environmental lens.

Kari Varner, a distinguished photographer and educator, explored key ecological sites along the canal, integrating harvested plants into her photographic artworks. Sarah Cameron Sunde, an innovative interdisciplinary artist, engaged with canal communities to create pieces that physically and ecologically connect with the canal. She also developed work in collaboration with Jeremy Dennis, a contemporary fine art photographer and an enrolled Tribal Member of the Shinnecock Indian Nation in Southampton, NY.

Mindfulness is often portrayed as creating calm, stillness, and a quiet mind. But for many, especially those with neurodivergent brains or lived trauma, this can feel frustrating and counterproductive.

The truth is, mindfulness isn't one-size-fits-all. In this class, experience guided meditation, focused attention, and mindful movement practices to sample a buffet of practices to promote present moment awareness.

Chairs are provided, but bring a mat if you prefer to sit on the floor. All are welcome — you don't need to identify as neurodivergent to attend!

Registration is recommended on the NOPL Event Calendar.
