Two events that were supposed to take place this weekend have been cancelled due to impending inclement weather — the ART MADE / ART DISPLAYED event in Hays and the Trick or Treat So Others Can Eat in Ellis.

Out of respect for the artists who were offering to open their homes and personal studio spaces to guests, the HAC has decided to postpone the ART MADE / ART DISPLAYED event scheduled for this Sunday.

“The weather conditions forecast for this weekend (on top of all the rain already!) are pretty unpleasant (low temps, rain and SNOW!) and we didn’t want to compromise their wonderful spaces with what could be a pretty messy day,” the HAC posted on Facebook.

The HAC hopes to reschedule this event for the spring.

In addition, the HAC Annual Meeting will be at 6:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 19 at the Hays Arts Center, immediately preceding the opening reception for its newest exhibition “Of the Earth” (Angela Muller and Barbara Jo Stevens) and book signing for “Pegasus Dan and the Little Owl” (author Nicole Thibodeau and illustrator Robert Joy).

The Trick or Treat So Others Can Eat in Ellis has been rescheduled for Sunday, Oct. 28.

Set your canned goods and non-perishables out on the porch by 4 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 28 for pickup by local youth. The food will go to the Ellis food pantry and food boxes program.
