SUMMARY:Where The Light Came In: Judith Black Book Signing and Q&A
DESCRIPTION:The most consequential moments are rarely dramatic. What stays with us\, what makes us feel truly seen\, is often small\, domestic\, and endlessly repeated. Judith Black’s photographs\, made at home in the early 1980s of her four young children and their stepfather\, remind us of this simple truth. \nIn 1980\, after a divorce\, Judith moved her family to Cambridge\, Massachusetts\, and took a job at the darkroom at MIT. Their home wasn’t grand\, but it was theirs\, a place to begin again. Not long after settling in\, they found a worn old armchair left on the side of the road and gave it a place by the window. It became a spot of rest and quiet theatre\, a vantage point from which Judith watched her children grow\, day by day\, frame by frame. \nThis new book gathers every photograph she made of that single chair. What begins as cast-off furniture becomes\, through her attentive eye\, a kind of threshold: a simple thing that holds a whole world. There is a truth here that is easy to overlook\, that by staying close to the ordinary\, by returning to the same corner of a room\, we might learn to see more clearly. And that the measure of a life is so often found not in grand gestures\, but in the worn fabric of a chair\, the shifting light\, the hush of children growing older under our watch.

SUMMARY:Friday Morning Sound Baths with Hendrik
DESCRIPTION:What’s a Soundbath?\nA soundbath is a performance of sound or music which is intended to relax\, to spiritually heal\, and to create a meditative state. Hendrik will play gong and singing bowls for this program. Often the sounds are long\,  sustained tones and harmonic resonances that happen higher above deep droning fundamental tones. The sound serves as a focal point for meditation. Instead of trying to focus on nothing or on the breath\, the participant concentrates on the sound as it changes and develops. \nWhat to Expect:\nPlease bring a yoga mat or meditation cushion with you. People often bring blankets and pillows as well. You will get the option to sit in a cushioned chair if desired. \nProgram Flow\nThere will be an introductory discussion where participants can check in with the group. Lately this has included discussions about stressors\, anxiety and depression. We will do some breathwork to relax a bit before the actual music. The soundbath will last about 60 minutes. After the bath\, we will also have time to discuss the experience\, check in with our community\, and plan how to support each other.

SUMMARY:Bestselling Author Emily Franklin In Conversation With Marjan Kamali (Zoom Program)
DESCRIPTION:Bestselling author Emily Franklin will discuss her new historical fiction novel\, Love & Other Monsters\, in conversation with bestselling author Marjan Kamali. \nClick here to register for this program! \nAbout The Book: Maggie O’Farrell’s Hamnet meets Jane Austen in this historical fiction based on the life of daring eighteen-year-old Claire Clairmont who in 1816 changed the course of literature forever. But then—unlike her stepsister Mary Shelley—was forgotten\, until now. During the dangerous storms of The Year Without Summer\, a group of famous young writers gathered at a mansion on the shores of Lake Geneva\, Switzerland. Brilliant Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley\, her fiery fiancé Percy Shelley\, the famously promiscuous Lord Byron\, and John Polidori\, his sexually tormented personal physician. At the group’s center was Claire Clairmont\, Mary’s impressionable\, clever\, and dangerously loyal stepsister. Those months of desire\, betrayal\, and creative passion gave the world the works of Frankenstein\, the modern vampire\, and the mythic image of these Romantic literary giants. In this intense and propulsive story of love\, lust\, art and betrayal\, Claire tells her story\, trying to solve the mystery of why she was all but erased from history.

SUMMARY:Music Together® Joyful Music
DESCRIPTION:Each week in Music Together® Mixed-Age Classes at Joyful Music\, babies\, toddlers\, preschoolers\, and the grownups who love them® gather for 45 minutes of fun-filled family music time. Your teacher will lead you and the other families in music activities ranging from lullabies to full-on jam sessions (with child-friendly instruments\, of course!). It’s so much fun you won’t realize how much learning is taking place! \nYou’ll take home the award-winning music used in class\, along with an illustrated songbook and other resources. As you discover new ways to play with music all week long\, you’ll be supporting your child’s music-learning and overall development—even if you don’t think of yourself as a great singer or dancer. \nWhy mixed ages?\nChild development researchers discovered that grouping children of different ages in one class encourages natural\, family-style learning\, so Music Together developed the Mixed-Age Music Class. In this class\, everyone participates at their own levels: babies vocalize\, listen\, and observe; toddlers play and experiment; and preschoolers build confidence as they emerge as classroom leaders. Grownups are happy because everyone can come to class together!
