Bay State Cohousing

English Country Dance this weekend: 
Join us for English Country Dancing this Sunday afternoon, 3-5PM in the Baystate Cohousing unit on Pleasant St. in Malden Center. This event is FREE! (voluntary donations welcome) 
I play the melody on my fiddle while teaching and prompting. We do dances from the 17th century that were brought to New England from Europe as well as popular dances created in the years since.&nbsp;For any who wish to try playing the melodies, sheet music is available and playing by ear or improvisation are encouraged.&nbsp;
These tunes make one want to dance! The dances are accessible and the dancers are mostly newcomers so, don't expect a "performance" but rather a nice participatory community event for all ages and abilities.

Please join us for Movie Night on Wednesday, November 18, 2026 from 6:00-8:15pm at the Malden Public Library. We will be showing a film based on the life and memoir of John Davidson called, I Swear: My Life With Tourette’s. The film stars Robert Aramayo, Maxine Peake, and Scott Ellis Watson and it is directed by Kirk Jones. This critically acclaimed film helps bring about awareness about people living with Tourette syndrome.
“The inspiring, extraordinary life story of notable Tourette Syndrome activist, John Davidson – played by BAFTA award winner Robert Aramayo. This emotionally engaging, funny and compelling film charts John Davidson’s Tourette’s diagnosis at the age of 14 years old. Set within 1980s Britain, the story follows him throughout his troubled teens and early adulthood, and explores this little known and entirely misunderstood condition, along with his attempts to live a ‘normal’ life against the odds.” 96% on Rotten Tomatoes.&nbsp;Rated R (125 min.) (2026)

Free snacks will be provided. Movie times are approximate.
