PITTSBORO — After a span of roughly two years, the doors of the Eastern Chatham Senior Center are preparing to open once more.
The Chatham County Council on Aging will be holding a reopening event for its renovated and expanded Pittsboro building from 5 to 7 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 5.
The celebration will include a catered dinner courtesy of Allen & Son Bar-B-Que, with entertainment provided by Heart of Carolina Jazz Orchestra. Under the direction of Gregg Gelb, the group has committed to play several musical selections.
In addition to scheduled speakers, a silent auction will be held throughout the evening, featuring artwork donated by artist and former Chatham County resident Karen Meredith and that of her late father. Meredith is a member of Oil Painters of America, American Impressionists Society, the Sanibel-Captiva Art League and a board member of the Shell Point Painters.
There is no cost to attend, but due to space limitations, RSVP is required.
