Grantee Collaboration Spotlight: This winter has been filled with moments that brought creativity, community, and collaboration to life throughout the Chelsea area. 🩰 Ballet Chelsea and the Chelsea District Library joined forces earlier this winter for The Nutcracker Storytime. This magical event brought storytelling and dance to the community, creating unforgettable moments for families. 💫 🎨Beyond the Cover: Celebrating Local Art is a collaboration between Gallery 100 at Silver Maples and the Chelsea District Library, an exhibition highlighting the artists behind CDL’s quarterly newsletter covers. The exhibition runs until February 27, 2026.
