Choose an Austin Prep Education Rooted in Augustinian Values

Austin Preparatory School

Austin Preparatory School, located in Reading, Massachusetts, is an independent Catholic prep school rooted in the Augustinian tradition. Serving students in grades 6 through 12, Austin Prep has cultivated a close-knit learning community since its founding in 1961. Guided by its mission to inspire hearts to unite, minds to inquire, and hands to serve, the school challenges students through a rigorous college preparatory program that includes honors and Advanced Placement courses, personalized instruction, and intentionally small classes. An Austin Prep education is preparation for the journey of life. Beyond academics, the school’s unwritten curriculum – the lived expression of veritas, unitas, and caritas (truth, unity, and love) – forms the heart of its mission. “At Austin Prep, we are on a journey that is life-changing and important,” says Head of School James Hickey, Ph.D. “Our patron, St. Augustine, embarked on a journey for the truth. At our core is an institution on the same journey, committed to exemplary teaching and learning.” Serving grades 6–12 under one roof allows this leading prep school to guide students through every stage of development—academic, social, emotional, physical, and spiritual. Community stands at the center of this experience, nurturing belonging and inspiring students to lead lives of purpose. Austin Prep athletics teams, competing in the New England Preparatory School Athletic Council (NEPSAC), are recognized among the best north of Boston, reflecting the same drive and integrity found in the classroom. Nearly every graduate continues on to a four-year college, prepared not only for success in higher education but for a meaningful life shaped by faith, friendship, and service.

Salem Old Town Hall

The inaugural Love is Love Market is a free artisan marketplace celebrating Pride weekend in downtown Salem, MA — and everyone is invited.
On Saturday, June 27, 2026, from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Old Town Hall (indoor) and Derby Square (outdoor) transform into a curated marketplace featuring nearly 30 local makers, artists, and small businesses from across the North Shore and beyond. This isn't a generic vendor fair. This is a market built around the people who pour their whole selves into what they create — the jewelers, the painters, the candlemakers, the bakers, the ceramicists, the designers who turned a passion into a business and a business into a community.
Shop handmade jewelry, original art, specialty foods, candles, ceramics, clothing, home goods, and more. This year's hand-selected lineup includes illustrator Karen Hallion, Sarah Kelly Ceramics, Dragonfly Candle &amp; Soap Co, Peace Florals, The Hippie Bean Co., Why Not Jewelry by Kirsty, Jack Attackk Clothing, Lory Sun Artistry, Wildwood Bindery, Alder &amp; Spice, Strawberry Oddities, and The Witchery — alongside more than a dozen more makers across both venues. Every vendor is hand-selected. Every purchase goes directly to the person who made it. And from noon to 3 PM, DJ Andrea Stamas brings the energy with a live, Pride-themed, family-friendly set — cued to start just as the North Shore Pride Parade makes its way through downtown.
Love is Love Market is timed to coincide with North Shore Pride celebrations, and that timing is intentional. This is a market that believes the creative economy and the LGBTQ+ community have always been connected — by courage, by self-expression, by the willingness to build something that didn't exist before. We wanted to create a space where that energy is visible, shoppable, and celebrated out loud — and 2026 is the first year we're bringing it to life.
Whether you're a longtime Salem local, visiting for Pride weekend, or just looking for a reason to spend a Saturday surrounded by good people and great makers — this is your day.
Make it the full Salem Pride experience. The Love is Love Market is one piece of a much bigger day. Start with the North Shore Pride Parade as it steps off through downtown Salem, gather on Salem Common for the North Shore Pride Festival, and then shop the Love is Love Market at Old Town Hall and Derby Square. We're proud to be part of a Pride weekend that fills the whole city — march, celebrate, shop, and stay all day.
Admission is free. All ages welcome. Leashed dogs welcome in Derby Square.
This inaugural year is made possible by two proud sponsors — Jenni Stuart Fine Jewelry and Witch City Walking Tours — two Salem businesses that showed up early and put their names on the line for a market that didn't exist yet. That's what real community looks like.

“Here’s to life!” Fans around the world can be found singing the chorus of the Roger Clyne-penned fan favorite “Mekong” and toasting their glasses in unison to celebrate life through rock-n-roll. But the inspiration for the song dates back to the time Roger went to Taipei, Taiwan, as a college student to teach English during the day and busk with his guitar at night for money.
Today, as Clyne prepares to release his 11th studio album, he continues to transform his life experiences, inspirations, observations and his own muses into timeless music. And whether he’s wearing his Converse high tops, boots or sandals, Clyne’s blend of punk rock, americana, indie-pop and mariachi influences have made him, drummer PH Naffah, guitarist Jim Dalton and bassist Nick Scropos – collectively known as Roger Clyne &amp; The Peacemakers – one of America’s best live rock-n-roll bands.
