2026-03-19 09:30 - 14:30 UTC | Lyngblomsten, 1415 Almond Ave, St Paul, MN, 55106, United States
Did you know that hearing loss is one of the largest risk factors for cognitive decline or dementia? We are bringing whole-person wellness screenings to older adults to discuss and take a look at several of the risk factors and provide insight to what they may wish to focus on to improve their brain health.
During this insightful conversation you will:

Have the opportunity to learn about your body composition metrics, screen for cognitive changes and depression, and importance about brain health.
Set Individualized Goals
Develop a Whole-Person Wellness Plan
Speak to a Registered Nurse about your overall wellness & barriers you face.
Get connected to resources in YOUR community that can support your wellness goals
Influence programming in YOUR community !

Help shape the next generation of nurses, nursing students from the University of Minnesota are key members of the screening team. This is not meant to replace a doctor’s visit, there is minimal overlap however, in your 60-minute wellness screening appointment you will have a thoughtful discussion about your wellness, what brings you joy, and what is next in your wellness journey.
ASL Interpreters will be present. Appointments are required. To schedule your appointment visit: https://form.jotform.com/fcnntc/schedulelyngASL

Better Things 5x5 Reading & Open Mic (April 2026)
2026-04-07 19:00 - 20:30 UTC | Moon Palace Books, 3032 Hiawatha Ave, Minneapolis, MN, 55406, United States
Please join us on Tuesday, April 7th, at 7:00pm, at Moon Palace Books, for our next 5×5 Reading, featuring five fantastic artists: Sagirah Shahid, Suzanne Locke, Isavela Lopez, Ben Westlie, and Nick Metcalf, followed by an open mic.
Each featured artist will take five minutes to share work. After the main reading, there will be a short break for refreshments, followed by an open mic period.
All are welcome to show up and participate in the open mic! (List is first come, first serve.) This reading, and the open mic afterward, will be hosted by Davi Gray and Erin Sharkey; both reading and open mic will feature ASL interpretation.
Masks are required at Moon Palace Books and are available on-site. This is a free event.
Better Things is a series of events sponsored by the ReEntry Lab, in partnership with the Minnesota Prison Writing Workshop (MPWW) and Moon Palace Books. The ReEntry Lab is an organization working to connect writers and other artists leaving incarceration to a community that’s ready to receive them.
This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through grants from the Minnesota State Arts Board and the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
There is a Facebook event (link coming soon), or you can add it to your Google Calendar or download an ICS file to add it to other calendars, but you can also just show up! We’d love to have you there — all are welcome at this free event.
