Growing Community: Nurturing In Winter

​​​​​​​Join ACM’s Growing Community at Martha’s Table Healthy Happy Hour, a free weekly community gathering that brings neighbors together for connection and wellness. Stop by the Commons to enjoy refreshing healthy mocktails, nutritious snacks, music, gardening activities, and hands-on wellness activities for all ages.

Participants will explore strategies for caring for plants and sustaining growth during the winter months. The session will cover winter plant care, low-maintenance growing practices, and ways to bring greenery into the home during colder seasons. Each guest will create a small plant display and leave with a Tillandsia (air plant), learning how to care for this resilient, low-maintenance plant year-round.

About ACM Beyond The Exhibition

Keeping engagement alive while our gallery transforms.

While we undergo an exciting exhibition installation from January through May of 2026, our work continues beyond the walls. Join us for a vibrant series based on History, Wellness and Culture hosted at partner locations throughout Ward 8, January through March 2026.

These free programs carry forward ACM’s program scope which fosters creativity, learning, and connection. Whether exploring history, or engaging in dialogue, you’ll discover meaningful opportunities to learn, share, and grow with neighbors of all ages.

ACM Beyond the Exhibition ensures that even while our gallery is closed, the spirit of community and engagement remains open to all.

Know what’s Happening Next — before everyone else does.
