Lunatic Fringe, New Jersey’s longest running improv troupe, continues its 30th season with a show at the Glen Ridge Train Station (Community Center) at 8 p.m. on November 7th
The group uses music and audience suggestions to create a show that’s different every time, but always funny - and always apolitical!
It's not deep. It's rarely thought-provoking. It's just funny!
Lunatic Fringe performers include Director Deb Maclean, Paul Murphy, Dave Groveman, and Gary Van Lieu. Ben Rausch improvises on piano. 
The show is suitable for older children, and you are welcome to bring your own refreshments.
Tickets are $12 at the door, but with a reservation, admission is only $10. Cash only. For reservations, call 973-429-1527. (This line cannot receive texts.)

Immaculate Conception Cemetery

Sunday, November 8, 2026, 1:30 PM - 3:30 PMImmaculate Conception Cemetery was originally established by Immaculate Conception Church, which is now part of St. Teresa of Calcutta Parish, in 1895. The cemetery holds the stories of many Irish and Italian American families who came to the United States in the early 20th century. Overseen by the Archdiocese of Newark, the cemetery has grown into a place of community and tradition. On this guided tour we will investigate historic gravestone art and share stories of legendary locals like Montclair's own World Series player, Notre Dame's first Heisman Trophy winner, “The King of Italian-American Music," one of the greatest ragtime composers, and the artist behind the Pennsylvania Railroad's iconic calendar paintings.&nbsp;
Led by MHC Executive Director Angelica Diggs, Educator Julia Chryc, and Board of Trustee Donato DiGeronimo. The tour is about 1 mile of walking. 
Tickets are $20/person ($15 for members - contact our office for the code). Tickets are required in advance. <a href="https://events.humanitix.com/immaculate-conception-cemetery-tour-2026/tickets" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Register here.</a>

Big emotions · Social media · AI · ADHD · The college launch&nbsp;
A lunchtime meet-up for parents of middle and high school tweens and teens&nbsp;
Monday, November 9th, 12:00–1:00pm Rec Room Montclair&nbsp;
<a href="https://therapystory.net/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Therapy Story</a> - Nayan Suryavanshi, LSW and Kaci Mial, M.Ed.&nbsp;
Growing up doesn't happen on a schedule, and neither does figuring out how to parent through it. You want to give them room to grow, but between morning battles, missing assignments, and screen-time negotiations, you're stretched thin.&nbsp;
Maybe...&nbsp;
● You get "fine" when you ask about their day, then hear them laughing on the phone with friends minutes later.&nbsp;
● Every morning you're the alarm clock, the reminder app, and the lost-and-found. By the time they're out the door, you've lost your cool and everyone's running on empty.&nbsp;
● You've reminded them about the same assignment five times, found it unfinished at 11pm, and wondered if it's ADHD, or if you have it too.&nbsp;
● Their schedule is busier than yours, with no time left.&nbsp;
● Senior year is coming fast, and you're not sure whether they're ready to let go, or whether you are. 
● And somewhere in there, you're still trying to manage your own job, life, and sanity.&nbsp;
If any of this sounds familiar, you're not alone, and this hour is for you.&nbsp;
What to expect&nbsp;
This isn't a lecture. It's an open conversation with other parents, guided by Nayan Suryavanshi, LSW and Kaci Mial, M.Ed. of Therapy Story and shaped by your questions. Anonymous question cards will be available. You'll leave with a few go-to ways to get more than "fine," a clearer sense of when to worry, and some new local parents in your corner.&nbsp;
What we'll talk about&nbsp;
● Big emotions: Why they go from "fine" to slamming doors, how to respond, and when moodiness is a sign of something more.&nbsp;
● Staying connected: What gets them talking, staying calm when they push your buttons, and repairing when you don't.&nbsp;
● ADHD: How it shows up in teens and adults, and how it affects school, work, and family life. 
● School and social pressure: Friendships, grades, college apps, or no motivation at all, and how to protect their well-being through it.&nbsp;
● Social media and AI: Screen time, peer pressure, and the AI chatbots teens are turning to. 
● Getting ready for what's next: Building independence now so life after high school feels within reach.&nbsp;
● Knowing when to get more support: When tools are enough, when it's time for more help, and what teen or family therapy actually looks like.
