NHA ON THE ROAD PRESENTS:

THE DOCORATIVE ARTS

 TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 8

1:30 PM

Our November program will be a hands-on decorative art project lead by Mary Lacoursiere.

Paperweights have been a standard on desks for ages. Not only are they useful but they add a bit of whimsy, capturing keepsakes and small treasures in a perfect package. They make the perfect gift or memento to mark a special occasion or milestone.

Make a paperweight using historic papers, photos, and memorabilia from the NHA archives. All materials included but bring any images and photos to make yours truly unique.

Limit of 15 and must register so there are enough materials

NANTUCKET CENTER FOR ELDER AFFAIRS

(FRIENDS OF

NANTUCKET SENIORS)

The time is now to review your Medicare coverage! By September 30th, each Medicare beneficiary receives an Annual Notice of Coverage which includes important information regarding Medicare costs and benefits. Open enrollment is October 15 – December 7 and state certified SHINE counselors will be available at by appointment to help you understand health care coverage, review cost increases, and find out what’s new with Medicare. 

Medicare and More Program from SHINE

This 30-minute segment highlights the Prescription Advantage program and other state and federal programs that lower co-pays, deductibles and fill that gap in Medicare Part D that is often referred to as the “donut hole”.
