Conversation Starters
Motta Field Community Design
The town’s master planning process for the future of Motta Field begins this Saturday with an “open house” event at the field. The design team from the municipal consulting firm Weston & Sampson will be at the field from 10 a.m. to noon to explain the planning process and hear people’s ideas for improvements. There will also be a “scavenger hunt for kids and adults,” image boards of potential park features, and a “dot voting” system for people to indicate their favorite ideas with stickers.
There is a related survey online at surveymonkey.com/r/MottaField.
Teach on Winter Wednesdays
Provincetown’s “Winter Wednesdays” social engagement program is set to run from Jan. 18 to March 7, and the town is still seeking instructors to run weekly programs. Classes typically meet Wednesdays from 6 to 8 p.m. in person, although the program is also called “Winter Whenevers” because some offerings are now conducted via Zoom or at other times of the week.
Last year, class subjects included dance, journaling, photography, ink sketching, yoga, and origami, as well as a workshop about death and another about creating art from past trauma.
Instructors receive a $50-per-class stipend, and applications, including a résumé and course syllabus, are due Nov. 28. More information is available at winterwednesdays.org. —Paul Benson
