New York University’s College of Dentistry is offering free dental screenings for children ages six months to 14 years this month, starting today, at P.S. 163 at 2075 Webster Avenue. The screenings will be offered on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays through the month of January and are open to the public from 3 to 4 p.m. Call Councilman Joel Rivera’s office for more information: 718-842-8100.

An events notice: the impending snowstorm that’s expected tonight/tomorrow has forced a couple of community groups to cancel their plans. Community Board 6 has canceled its monthly meeting that was scheduled for tomorrow night at 6 p.m., and the Kingsbridge-Riverdale-Van Cortlandt Development Corp.’s Riverdale meeting, which had also been scheduled for tomorrow night, is being called off. We’ll keep you posted on their replacement dates if we hear about them.

More events happening this week in the Boogie Down are listed below in our community calendar.
