A meet and greet with Mark Greenberg, a Republican candidate for the 5th District congressional seat currently held by Rep. Chris Murphy, will be held from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 23, at Cuisine with Jill Nicolson, 184 South Main St., Torrington.

Complimentary hors d'oeuvres (by Jill, of course) and beverages will be served.

Northwest Connecticut residents are seeing and hearing more about Greenberg than some of the other candidates in the race perhaps due to Greenberg's deep ties to the area.

He opened The Market and Goshen Hardware in Goshen and Hemlock Kennels.
