Celebrate Aging with Pride

Aging with Pride (AWP) presented the first Celebrate Aging with Pride Recognition Award on August 21, 2025, to Alyssa Rubilotta, Manager of the Wooden Ladle. The award is to recognize individuals or businesses who have been extremely supportive of the older members of the LGBTQ+ Community. Alyssa has gone the extra mile in welcoming AWP and other groups at the Wooden Ladle. The award includes a certificate and a glass wall hanging of the art piece "Celebrate Aging with Pride" by local artist Kem. The original artwork is on display in the office of Lake Erie Counseling here in Erie. If you would like to learn more about the award, please reach out to Pete Genco at 814.384.9785.
