Third Annual Wellness Week

Is Oct. 7-13

REDDING — Wellness Week is an annual event dedicated to family awareness in love, in which area professionals freely offer their time and wisdom to parents and others through a variety of workshops for the mind, body, and spirit.

This year’s suggested $20 donations will be given to local victim’s families. All proceeds will be donated to those victims’ families of Fairfield County whom we are made aware of through your participation. Wellness Week will take place at the Unitarian Universalist Society of Fairfield County at 9 Picketts Ridge Road in Redding. Registration is required by contacting Donna Metta at 203-746-1199.

 Children of all ages are welcome to express their response to the question, “What do you wish the world would be like?” in any artistic way they choose so their creation can be a part of The Child’s Voice Art Gallery for adults to see throughout the week long event.
