SUMMARY:Growing Together: Fall Planting & Garden Cleanup
DESCRIPTION:Prepare your garden for winter while setting the stage for a healthier\, more productive spring. This lesson explores what to cut back\, what to leave standing for wildlife\, what\, how and when to plant in fall\, and simple ways to protect your soil and perennial plants through the colder months. Participants will also learn how to turn existing garden debris into nutrient-rich mulch\, reducing waste while returning organic matter to the garden. This class takes a thoughtful\, ecological approach to fall cleanup\, working with nature rather than against it. \nGrowing Together is a new hands-on gardening series at Stevens-Coolidge House & Gardens\, created in collaboration with Arianna Iappini of Birch Arbor Gardens. Designed for gardeners of all experience levels\, this series invites participants to learn\, connect\, and cultivate alongside one another through the seasons. Each session blends practical instruction with thoughtful conversation\, exploring sustainable gardening practices\, seasonal rhythms\, and the deeper relationships between plants\, place\, and people. Rooted in community and shared knowledge\, Growing Together offers a welcoming space to grow skills\, confidence\, and connection in the historic gardens. \nSpace is limited—pre-registration is required for this event. This program is rain or shine! In the event of cancellation\, you will be notified via the email address you used to register and refunded in full within 14 business days.

SUMMARY:Cold Coast: Massachusetts’ Dark History & Mysteries With Anngelle Wood
DESCRIPTION:A live podcast event with Anngelle Wood\, host of Crime of the Truest Kind \nCrime of the Truest Kind host Anngelle Wood traverses the dusky history of the North Shore’s rocky coast – and what lies beyond its shoreline. Through local lore\, ghost ships\, sunken vessels\, disappearances\, unresolved crimes\, and the stories of those who may have been forgotten\, this evening explores the haunting space between what history records and what it leaves behind. Gloucester Sea Serpent – Charles Haskell’s Ghost Ship – Haunted Wreck of the Jennie M. Carter – Legends of Dogtown – Exiled to Thatcher Island – North Shore Folklore – Missing & Unsolved\nThe ocean has always been a source of awe and wonder. So it was in Gloucester Harbor in the 1800s\, when villagers were said to have witnessed a sea serpent rising from the tide—an encounter that became one of Cape Ann’s enduring maritime legends.\nFor centuries\, Dogtown’s rugged terrain has inspired eerie tales. The 18th-century village was once home to farmers\, war wives\, widows of seafaring men\, and their roaming watchdogs. Long abandoned\, the five-square-mile settlement straddling Gloucester and Rockport is now marked by cellar holes\, etched boulders\, even a whale’s jaw – and bewitching legends. \nCOLD COAST follows the shoreline’s intersection of history\, crime\, loss\, and lore. This is not a horror-story hour\, but a victim-centered evening of storytelling\, research\, remembrance\, and local history – honoring the people at the heart of every case while exploring the mysteries that continue to shape our region. \nAmong the crime cases to explore are the disappearance of Abbie Flynn; the identification of Tiffany Bradley\, who for decades was known only as Chelsea Jane Doe; the murder of Beverly teacher Anne Natti\, whose body was found in Dogtown; the unsolved circumstances surrounding Frances Cochran\, found near the Salem–Swampscott line; and two anonymous phone calls that identified the locations of Cochran and another victim. \nQ+A to follow\, bring your questions.\nOr email them in advance to crimeofthetruestkind@gmail.com. \nCrime of the Truest Kind Online: crimeofthetruestkind.com\nFollow: @crimeofthetruestkind

SUMMARY:CAM Talk: From Clay to Bronze\, The Making of the Seated Cat\, by Robert Shure
DESCRIPTION:CAM welcomes sculptor Robert Shure for an engaging gallery talk on the Seated Cat\, his newly installed bronze in the Museum’s renovated courtyard\, an enlargement of Katherine Lane Weems’ iconic work of the same name and modeled in 1941. Shure will reflect on his past work with Weems\, the artistic dialogue that emerged between their two cats\, and the meticulous sculptural process behind creating this magnificent piece for CAM’s campus. It is a chance to hear directly from the artist about the history\, craft\, and character embodied in this contemplative feline form. \nUpon graduating from college\, owner Robert Shure became an assistant at the traditional sculpture studio of Arcangelo Cascieri and Adio di Biccari. From the early 1970s through the 1980s\, Shure helped produce many of the public monuments\, sculptures\, memorials\, and restorations completed at the Cascieri-di Biccari studio. He became involved in all the specialties of the sculpture studio\, including designing monuments and portraits\, creating armatures\, mold-making\, casting in plaster\, creating and replicating architectural ornament\, and conserving and restoring plaster\, stone\, and bronze. As Cascieri and di Biccari gradually retired\, Shure continued the tradition of the sculpture studio. In 1990\, Shure moved the Cascieri-di Biccari studio to Woburn\, Massachusetts and renamed it Skylight Studios. It is one of the largest and most active studios of its type in the country. Robert is currently creating many significant public and private monuments and sculptures. He has accumulated over 40 years of hands-on experience in the field of sculpture. His expertise ranges from the design and creation of monumental sculpture in bronze and granite to the conservation and restoration of historical sculpture and architectural ornament. Robert works with a worldwide clientele of communities\, institutions\, committees\, architects\, and museums.
