Pictured (l-r) Mural artists whose creativity brought the MOWSV concept to life: Juan Carlos Padilla; José "Pepe" Nolasco and José G. Ortiz were the talent behind the beauty and shared in the festivities.

Did you make it to our Open House on January 18th? We had an incredible time celebrating with many guests and members of the community who got a look at our "new" office and warehouse that we have occupied since 1/17/23 -- our 1 year anniversary in the space. The Salinas Valley Chamber of Commerce staff was on hand to help with this combination event which included an open house, mixer and a mural unveiling. Please visit our FaceBook page to watch the 11-minute video of the program emceed by Regina Gage, MOWSV Executive Director and showcasing the exciting mural unveiling at the end of her speech. The mural project was completed in partnership with the Arts Council for Monterey County.

Many MOWSV Board members were in attendance, enjoying interactions with members of our community, agency partners and Salinas Valley Chamber of Commerce members. We had plenty of food and wine to enjoy.

It's important for our community to share in the success of the many programs for seniors that MOWSV facilitates including Home Delivered Meals, HANDS program (for those homebound and under 60 years old), "Art & About" music program and our SOCOS/NOCOS Socials - congregate meals and more. Our programs rely on many dedicated people, staff and volunteers, to keep them running smoothly.
