You may recall that Susan and Tino Galluzzo donated art to Noble Horizons last winter which we displayed in the gallery last spring. Thanks to the discerning eyes of cottager Tina Chandler and the talented team of Roz and Richard Roney Dougal (pictured flanking a Wyeth), the art has been expertly hung throughout Noble. "It is pure bliss to see the new collection of paintings from the Galluzzos dotted here and there," exclaimed one cottager. "It is better around every corner I turn...it's like a scavenger hunt, too! So good!!!" The next time you are on campus, please keep an eye out for the newly hung art; you will be enchanted.
Fall officially arrived last week and with it, the busy pace of the fall event season! We were thrilled to welcome Keith Moon back to campus for a captivating program about his recent work with Ukrainian refugees and this Friday at 11 am you can enjoy Verena Drake's final class on the Dutch Golden Age of Painting which dazzled her audience last week. Please read further for upcoming event news!
Noble celebrated the Jewish New Year with a delicious Rosh Hashanah meal and is gearing up for a Salisbury Fall Festival activity sure to charm festival goers. In honor of the joy our pet therapy visitors bring each week, residents are baking dog biscuits which will be available for festival-goers to decorate with pet-friendly icing! Be sure to pick up a yummy treat for your favorite pooch!
As we close in on the magnificent month of October, please remember to look up-scatterings of fall foliage colors are emerging and the best is yet to come!

- Many older women rely on social security as their only source of income.
