One Health has some amazing activities planned over the next few months. What a great opportunity for creativity in our community!

Hello all. Things were changed up a little bit, instead of having the art class this Thursday night, it will be next Thursday July 30th from 6pm to 8 pm. Due to it being Fair week we thought it would be better if we had next week, you can enjoy the fair this week and engage in some fun art next week. Hope to see you there!
