  Harmony in Blue and Gold:

  The Travels and Travails of Whistler's Peacock Room

  Located at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Asian Art, Whistler’s Harmony in Blue and Gold, or the Peacock Room as it is commonly called, is a mesmerizing, immersive experience.  Its enduring impression, however, may have as much to do with the room’s embellished and unusual history as it does the artwork.  Join Sara McComb as she shares a brief history of the Peacock Room from her tourist’s perspective.

  Bringing the World Back Into Focus: Advances in Cataract Surgery
  

  Cataracts are one of the most common—and most treatable—causes of vision loss as we age. In this talk, Dr. John F. Warren will explain what cataracts are, how to recognize when it’s time to consider surgery, and what patients can expect from today’s advanced surgical techniques. He will also discuss new strategies for achieving clearer, more customized vision correction, helping patients regain the clarity and quality of sight that make daily life so much more enjoyable. 

  About the Speaker
  John F. Warren, MD, was born in Pittsfield, Massachusetts, and raised in the Berkshires and northern Vermont. He attended the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and earned his medical degree from Stanford University. He completed his Ophthalmology Residency and Cornea Fellowship at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF). Dr. Warren has practiced in the Pioneer Valley since 2005, specializing in cataract, LASIK, and corneal surgery, and has performed more than 25,000 surgical procedures. He lives in Amherst and practices at Longwood Eye & LASIK, which has offices in Greenfield, West Springfield, Gardner, and Fitchburg.

  Bird Migration through the Seasons
  

  Monday, February 23, 1:30 pm

  Dan Ziomek, a life-long birder and host of “Birdsongs” on 93.9 FM, will discuss how bird species play an important role in keeping our natural world in balance.  Bird migration is the never-ending cycle of comings and goings. The birds that have been with us all winter are beginning to head north, soon to be replaced by birds that moved south for the winter. It is through these migratory shifts that birders like myself have noticed a steady decline in bird populations over time. Birds play an important role in our natural world from pollination to seed dispersal and pest control. Any loss of bird species or population is a loss for all of us. 

  Dan has been birding throughout the valley and beyond all his life. He has led numerous trips in search of birds for the Hampshire Bird Club as well as the Hitchcock Center in Amherst. He also has a radio program on 93.9 The River called “Birdsongs” at 3:30 and 6:30 every weekday. He has been in the gardening business for over thirty years and enjoys helping customers create bird and pollinator friendly gardens. He has lived in Amherst all his life and is married to Emily and they have two wonderful children, Nate and Sophie.
