Museum of Modern Renaissance

Back by popular demand: Full Moon Halloween Yoga—costumes optional!
🌕 Join us for a special Monday night Hunter’s Moon Yoga &amp; Soundscape inside the breathtaking Museum of Modern Renaissance!
Monday, October 26, 2026 • 7:00 PM
Museum of Modern Renaissance • Somerville, MA
The Hunter’s Moon always follows the Harvest Moon. Traditionally, its bright light helped hunters continue after sunset while families and communities gathered food and prepared for the winter ahead.
Spiritually, the Hunter’s Moon represents preparation, reflection, and the continuation of time as one season gives way to the next. It invites us to pause and take an honest look at where we are—our work, relationships, goals, and personal growth—and decide where we want to place our energy moving forward.
Together, we’ll move, breathe, and reconnect as a community while setting intentions for the season ahead.
This special all-levels experience includes:
✨ 60-minute guided yoga flow
🔔 15-minute restorative soundscape in Savasana
🎵 Crystal singing bowls, percussion, and a fun Halloween-inspired playlist
🌕 Hunter’s Moon reflection and intention setting
🎃 Costumes are completely optional
🎨 A truly unforgettable setting surrounded by the museum’s inspiring artwork
Whether you’re brand new to yoga or have been practicing for years, this laid-back class is open to all levels and all bodies. Come exactly as you are—or come dressed as somebody else for Halloween!
You can also DM @BulldogFlowBoston to pay directly through Venmo or Zelle.
Please arrive 10–15 minutes early to settle into the space. Phones are discouraged during class except for emergencies.

All She Wrote Books

Join All She Wrote Books on Monday, October 26th at 6:30pm, as we welcome author Malavika Kannan to celebrate the release of her newest novel — Unprecedented Times! Unprecedented Times captures the beauty, humor, pain, and straight-up chaos that exist in relationships between best friends and lovers, mothers and daughters, and between storytellers and themselves. Malavika Kannan’s fresh, arresting novel is a testament to the power of self-narrative for Gen Z American women: of writing oneself into existence where no previous script exists.

This book launch event will include a reading and conversation between Malavika and author Laura van den Berg, an audience Q&amp;A, and a signing by Malavika and Laura!

"Inclusivity" isn't just a buzzword to us. We make every effort to ensure our space and events are accessible to and for everyone. If you or someone in your party needs accommodations, please email us at <a target="_blank" href="https://mailto:info@allshewrotebooks.com/" rel="nofollow noopener">info@allshewrotebooks.com</a>.

About Unprecedented Times
Which comes first: experience or narrative? Rishi thinks she knows the answer as she arrives on campus for her first year at Stanford. A burnt-out youth climate activist, she used to want to save the world, but now she just wants to have gay sex. Her plan is set—she’s going to leave behind the strict trappings of her Indian American childhood in Florida, study literature, experiment with love, and write all about it. Within a few months, she makes her first best friend, falls in love with her situationship, and promptly gets her heart broken.

What is not a part of Rishi’s plan is the onset of the COVID pandemic. As the outside world becomes a terrifying place, she increasingly finds solace in the friendships she’s made. Instead of virtual college, however, Rishi and her classmates join a farm collective, where their political discussions and growing disillusionment collide with sexual tension and responsibility. It’s only when those relationships start fracturing under the stress of careless decisions, unrequited crushes, jealousies, and, yes, unprecedented times, that Rishi begins to question her own story.

Artists For Humanity

Join us for our next “AFH Presents” Featured Artist exhibition showcasing work by AFH alum, Rashad Nelson.&nbsp;
Rashad Nelson is one of the original "comeback kids" of Artists for Humanity (AFH). Boston born and raised, he found his love of art in street art, then refined his painting technique at AFH. The energy of his “graffiti bombing” runs through his abstract style, where bold strokes, colors, and painting language speak to his personal journey. Again and again, Rashad has come back stronger, more creative, and more mature, and this exhibition celebrates the artist he is today.

Exhibition Duration: October 29 – January 10, 2027
Artist Talk + Opening Reception: Thursday, October 29, 2026
<ul><li>Artist Talk: 5pm–6pm</li><li>Opening Reception: 6pm–8pm</li></ul>
