Michael Friedman’s pop-up photography gallery — featuring intimate images he took more than 50 years ago, of the Rolling Stones, Doors, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and more — was slated to close over the holidays.

He’s open weekends from noon to 5, and other times “by chance.”
If you’d prefer more certainty than that ’60s-type vibe, call or text 203-247-6869.

‘The third — and final — session in Sustainable Westport’s Residential Energy Learning Series is “Everything Solar.”
Set for January 23 (6:30 p.m., Westport Library), it features Westport architect John Rountree and Aegis Solar consultant Nathan Hernandez.
They’ll offer ideas on how to transition your home or business to solar energy, including how solar panels work, how to choose a solar installation company, key design and installation considerations, the expected ROI from going solar, and financing options (with federal and state incentives).
Westporter Jim Wolf, who recently installed solar, will also speak.
Panelists will answer audience questions too. Click here to register.
John Rountree — who will speak on January 23 — added solar panels to his house, and a nearby garage.

And finally … 56 years after its release, Dion’s song resonates strongly.
Considering all that our nation has been through since then — and all that we’ve lost — it may be even more poignant then ever.

Dion (DiMucci) was a born and raised in the Arthur Ave section of the Bronx. A small clue where the “Belmonts” came from.

Michael’s exhibit is not to be missed. He and Donna are absolutely delightful and he’s just a cool wealth of Rock and Roll knowledge ✨
Love that handsome Koda🐾🐾
