Goodbye My Love and More in Greenwich

Here's what's happening in Greenwich today!


Good morning Greenwich!

Wondering about those red planes with the heart-shaped noses that are hovering in the oak trees at the entrance of the Greenwich Arts Council
They're a hanging outdoor sculpture installation of three fiber-glass planes from the Goodbye My Love works by prominent contemporary Cuban sculptor Esterio Segura. This installation was specially adapted for this space at the Greenwich Arts Council, 299 Greenwich Ave., from a larger, recent showing of Segura's works at Times Square in New York City. Segura’s concept for the sculptures is to reference the love that is commonly found in contemporary relationships which often requires people to be separated from one another, according to the Arts Council. The planes can symbolize departure and allude to the experience of farewell – one of the most universal and common of human interactions.

Humane Farming: Perspectives from a 4th Generation Pig Farmer
Joe Maxwell, who grew up on a family farm and is a former representative and Missouri lieutenant governor, will speak at the Greenwich Library at 7 o'clock tonight. He's vice president of outreach and engagement for The Humane Society of the United States, and works directly with family farmers, helping them organize into producer groups to open direct markets for their own products.
