SUMMARY:Killam's Point: A Walk through Natural History
DESCRIPTION:A Walk Through Natural History\nKillam’ s Point Events \nCome take a walk with us through natural history led by Jimmy Goggin. Clad in fall colors\, the raw beauty of Killam’s Point will be on display. Crisp air\, the ospreys feeding for their long migration\, the granite bluffs against the sparkling Sound\, schools of bunker fleeing a bluefish frenzy\, chipmunks and squirrels harvesting acorns\, and through it all\, the peace and order of an undisturbed ecological system—this is the Point in all its glory. Held at Killam’s Point on Shore Dr. For info\, call 203-747-4184. Co-sponsored by the First Congregational Church of Branford.

SUMMARY:Winter Art Show
DESCRIPTION:The Branford Land Trust is hosting a Winter Art Show on Friday\, December 8 from 5-8 pm to be held at the Land Trust House on School Street in Branford. Artist who would like to submit a piece of work should contact Jay Babina at jbabina@snet.com. \nThe basic theme of the show is open spaces\, and works should reflect the basic fundamental mission of the Land Trust: to preserve open space in Branford\, and to promote our community’s appreciation of Branford’s diverse natural features. This could be realistic\, abstract or anything that typifies the resources that the organization is so passionate about preserving. Obviously landscapes reflect this. Our space only allows one piece per artist. As the show is finalized\, further information will be presented to the public and specific details to the artists.
