"An Evening in Word and Image" is described as a series, but lists only one date. Is this an error?

The Word and Image series is ongoing; every semester we hold a free event within the series with a different artist and writer. This past fall, our featured artist was Somerville photographer, Mary Kocol, and local poet, Cornelia Veenendaal.

Also, every semester we offer a semester long class in Word and Image for students which focuses on teaching students to expand upon their existing concepts of word-image associations and to integrate those concepts into their own creations.

What can the neighborhood do to prevent Lesley from evicting the Japanese supermarket now in the Porter Exchange building? Does Lesley want to destroy the entire 'Japanese mall' concept?
