The new year began with the same troubles of
2020, but with some hope on the horizon: Our
essential health care workers are beginning to get
vaccinated, and everyday New Yorkers may begin
receiving the vaccine in a matter of weeks.
Plus, as with any new year, 2021 gives us the
opportunity to turn over a new leaf. We asked our
readers to send us their resolutions on Instagram
(page 10). Local therapists shared tips for taking
care of your mental health this difficult winter
(page 14). An Open Culture program will soon be
bringing the arts to our streets (page 21).
If you’re missing food from your favorite eateries
and want to support local businesses, check out our
roundup of western Queens spots offering premade
foods that you can heat up at home (page 26).
