We are excited at the news that our monthly programs will now be offered with options for both in-person (whenever possible) and live zoom attendance! In-person meetings will be held at Zeller Studio located at 1421 Mainstreet in downtown Hopkins on the second Thursday of the month. Look for updates here, on the MNWS Facebook page, and your email.
