92-Year-Old Artist Still Painting Waves | Hartford News

At 92, Beth S. Goldberg is still painting her way into art history—her first contest win came at 12, and now, after 80 years, her abstract, surreal, and mixed-media masterpieces are getting fresh acclaim across the Northeast. Featured by Artsy Shark as Artist of the Month, she credits art with renewing her spirit and giving back what she pours into it. Her journey began in Brooklyn with a Pocahontas painting that won first place, paused by a harsh high school teacher, then reignited in college where she forged her own voice, inspired by art history’s greats. She also pioneered art therapy, helping seniors and dementia patients find connection through creativity—earning accolades including Hofstra’s alumni award. Even now, she revisits old works for refinement, her son saying her boundless creativity and reinvention continue to inspire generations.

ICE at Bradley Airport | Hartford News

ICE agents are reportedly showing up at Bradley International Airport, sparking concern in Connecticut as officials warn travelers could be targeted during routine TSA screenings. Governor Lamont and Public Safety Commissioner Ronnell Higgins confirmed awareness but stressed they’re not involved in immigration enforcement — and urged federal agents to “leave us alone.” While ICE notified the state of their presence, no details were given about future operations. Connecticut’s laws already restrict local law enforcement’s cooperation with ICE, adding to the tension. The Connecticut Airport Authority says they’ve only learned of these “targeted operations” after they happen, and can’t stop them since they occur in federal territory — a move they say undermines their mission to keep travelers safe and moving smoothly. Meanwhile, national data shows many in immigration detention haven’t even been convicted of crimes. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
