Custom Skincare, Backed by Real Expertise — Boston

Kerry Spindler Bespoke Aesthetics Spa

Kerry Spindler Bespoke Aesthetics Spa is a private, results-driven skincare studio serving Winthrop and the Greater Boston area. Founded by nationally recognized beauty expert Kerry Spindler, the practice blends advanced clinical knowledge with a holistic, whole-person approach to skin health. Every treatment is fully customized. No cookie-cutter facials. No trend chasing. Just intelligent, personalized care based on what your skin actually needs. Kerry is an oncology-trained paramedical esthetician and melanoma survivor whose background in advanced skin science allows her to work confidently with all skin types, tones, and concerns — from acne, breakouts, and congestion to pigmentation, aging, texture changes, and overall skin resilience. Services include advanced corrective facials, microneedling with RF, nano needling, chemical peels, microcurrent lifting, LED light therapy, acne-focused treatments, pigmentation correction, and barrier-repair support. The spa also offers brow and lash services, facial waxing for delicate areas, and holistic support services such as Reiki and traditional herbal yoni steaming. Clients travel from Boston, Cambridge, the North Shore, and surrounding neighborhoods for Kerry’s education-first approach, precision treatments, and long-term skin strategy. This is a quiet, boutique setting designed for people who want real expertise and thoughtful care — not rushed appointments or one-size-fits-all spa menus. Appointments are by reservation only.

Cape Cod

September 26-27th, 10am - 4pm
Join us for the 2nd annual Cape Cod Pottery Trail! This self-guided trail offers a rare behind-the-scenes look at the people and places where Cape Cod pottery is made. With 16 locations on the 2026 trail map and multiple artists at some locations, visitors can experience an extraordinary range of ceramic work—from wheel-thrown and slipcast functional ware to hand-built sculpture, jewelry, raku and wood-fired pieces. Many of these spaces are not open to the public outside the Trail, making the weekend a unique opportunity to meet the artists, see their creative processes, and purchase work directly from the makers. The Trail is free and open to everyone. There is no starting point or route. Visitors already on-Cape can jump onto the trail at any location, while those arriving from off-Cape often begin at the Sagamore location. Download a map from the Pottery Trail website. For an added element of fun, this map doubles as a Pottery Passport which provides space to collect a stamp at each stop. Complete the passport and turn it in at the final stop for a chance to win a handmade piece created by one of the Trail artists. September 25, 5-7pm Kick Off the Weekend at the Preview Party Get the hottest ticket in town! Join us for a festive evening event where you will meet the makers, see (and purchase) samples of their work, connect with the thriving pottery community – all while enjoying food and drink in the beautiful garden setting. Tickets are $10, and available on the website.
