In partnership with the Andover Center for History & Culture, the Cazimi Creative Collaborative have created a public art installation featuring woven elements, metal and wood sculpture, and a live performance activation inside the community storefront windows on in front of CVS on Main Street in downtown Andover.

The Scouts of Ballard Vale Troop 76 will be holding an open house at the Andover Conservation Commission’s Pole Hill Reservation. Visiting hours are 1pm-5pm, Saturday, May 14th. During the Open House, visitors can learn from the Scouts about camping, fire safety, orienteering, and geocaching. The Troop will have a scavenger hunt that visitors are welcome to try. There will also be some life-long residents to discuss the history of Pole Hill, New Stream, and the historic stone-arch bridge and its recent renovation. Troop 76, sponsored by the Ballard Vale United Church, was recognized in 2009 as stewards of the Pole Hill Reservation by the ACC as part of its efforts to get local Scouts to help spread the word about Andover’s green spaces. Part of the agreement is that each year they host an event open to the public. Due to the pandemic, this is the first open house since 2019. The Scouts will be working on a service project in the morning.
