Eustis Estate Museum and Study Center, Historic New England

Spiritualism—the belief that the living and the dead could communicate with one another—was popular in the United States from the mid-19th to the early 20th century. Spiritualism provided consolation to those grieving loved ones, empowerment to women seeking escape from the domestic sphere, and, as you’ll experience at this party, opportunities for socializing and entertainment. Receive a tarot card reading, have <a href="https://monstersofsalem.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Monsters of Salem</a> take your photo with a ghost, play Victorian parlor games, and explore the 19th&nbsp;century mansion—you never know who you might commune with!
Don your finest clothing from Spiritualism’s peak years, the 1860s to the 1920s. The spirits will not be offended if you choose to wear modern moody or formal gothic attire.
Your ticket to this party, which runs from 7:00 p.m.-10:00 p.m., includes all activities, hors d’oeuvres, dessert, and one glass of wine, beer, or bubbly (cash bar after one drink).

The Rashi School

Middle school can bring enormous change for our daughters and for us as parents. Puberty, shifting hormones, big emotions, changing friendships, growing independence, and an increasingly complicated social world can leave even the most grounded parent wondering: Is this normal? What does she need from me? How do I stay connected while also giving her room to grow?Join Brooke Reilly OTR/L, CLC, PMH-C, and Dawn Ellis, LICSW for a warm, honest, and practical conversation about supporting girls from the middle school years.We'll talk about what's happening physically, emotionally, and socially during puberty, while also making space for something parents of adolescents often need but don't always have, an opportunity to talk openly with other parents about what they're experiencing.

Braintree Mom Launches New Pathway for Young Adults

Dharma Dreams Vocational Center

Dharma Dreams Vocational Center is a nonprofit vocational and life skills program based in Hanover, Massachusetts, serving young adults ages 18–26 with moderate cognitive disabilities. Our mission is to help students build practical job skills in the trades, confidence, independence, emotional regulation, and workplace readiness through hands-on vocational training and supportive learning experiences. The program was created in response to the growing need for meaningful transition opportunities for young adults as they move beyond high school and into adulthood. Many families struggle to find programs that combine practical workforce preparation, life skills development, communication skills, confidence-building, and supportive real-world learning experiences. Dharma Dreams offers hands-on exposure to vocational areas such as landscaping and grounds maintenance, painting and surface preparation, workplace professionalism, entrepreneurship basics, and life skills training. Students also learn mind-body techniques that support focus, confidence, emotional regulation, stress management, and workplace success. Our introductory summer program, launching at the end of July, is designed to help students and families become familiar with the program and explore vocational interests before participating in longer-term programming. Long-term programming focuses on helping students develop greater independence, workplace readiness, responsibility, confidence, and practical trade skills through structured, hands-on learning experiences. Dharma Dreams Vocational Center aims to create supportive pathways toward greater independence, meaningful employment opportunities, and a stronger sense of purpose while helping young adults feel valued, capable, and connected to their future potential.
