What’s going on Wednesday? High tea, Women in History, and the Digital Arts

March came in like a lion, and it is going out as a sweet, fluffy lamb. Easter is just a few days away and the fun times and activities for the little ones don’t seem to be in danger of getting snowed out. Find the right egg hunt for your family in my Easter Fun list HERE. Join the American Tea Mistresses at the Nevada Governor’s Mansion for their first ever ‘Spring Tea.’ The Carson Library is offering a film this evening in honor of Women in History month: "The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks" begins at 5:30pm. The Wired Wednesday Digital Artists group meets tonight and welcomes all those who may be interested. They’re the ones responsible for the short film competitions in town, and this month will be looking at making a movie about making a movie.
