phiawomenscenter's avatarCape Ann Wellness

Our July craft night will be a fun origami paper folding workshop. This is a great relaxing alternative to a Friday night out at the bar or, a great activity to do in between dinner and going to hear your favorite local band play. Located right downtown on Main St., Phia is the perfect location to walk to all the local hot spots.

Origami paper folding is an ancient craft that promotes creativity, relaxation, and mindfulness. Phia’s origami flower workshop will teach you to make several types of paper flowers and we will give you written directions and pictures for each flower to take home. These flowers are the perfect way to capture this beautiful growing season all year long. Come sip your favorite drink, fold some paper, and enjoy fun, low key vibes. All are welcome! No experience needed.

Only $15 when you register online today!

Celebrate Solar Energy with Foster’s Grill Store and Cazeault Solar and Home.

Celebrate Solar Energy with Foster’s Grill Store and Cazeault Solar and Home.

On Friday, July 14th from 1:30-3:30pm Fosters Grill Store staff and the Cazeault Solar Supply team will celebrate their new green energy partnership with a barbecue unveiling the newly installed solar project at the business’s location at 107 Eastern Avenue. The always entertaining Billy will be on the grill showing off his skills on his favorite coal, wood and gas grills while the Cazeault team will be able to answer questions about the benefits of solar energy. Specials on great grilling accessories will be running in the store and guests can enter to win a grill basket full of staff favorite barbeque tools. Stop by for a sample from the grill and other family fun activities.

July 14, 2017 1:30-3:30pm

Foster’s Grill Store 107 Eastern Ave, Gloucester, MA

For event details check out our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/fostersgrillstore/

Foster’s Grill Store is celebrating its 51st year in business offering leading brand gas, charcoal and wood pellet grills, accessories, gifts, expert delivery and assembly and even outdoor kitchens. Owners, Susan (Foster) and Billy Aaron are local homeowners, parents and active supporters of many initiatives that serve to better the community, so the decision to go green was an easy one.

It has been a choice the Aarons are already very happy to have made. “Going solar makes sense to us as a business, as community members and, especially, as parents,” says Sue of their recent solar installation.

“We know that solar energy is better for the environment so it’s obviously better for our kids, now and as they get older. And the savings and rewards for producing solar energy just make sense,” Billy added.

What was even easier than deciding to install the panels the Aarons soon found, was the process for getting them in place.

“The Cazeault team could not have made this any simpler or less stressful, and it was a big project, at least in our minds,” said Sue. “We honestly have never experienced service like we have working with Tim and Sam. The whole thing was just painless. That’s definitely something worth celebrating.”

And celebrate they will. Come on by for a bite and check out this exciting new project.

I Am More: Donna

Chickity Check It! A portrait of our Donna by Any Kerr

amykerrdrawsportraits's avatarAmy Kerr Draws Portraits

Donna doesn’t know this, but when I was first getting to know her, I was alarmed by her positivity. Not because it was a bad thing, but because I was so used to trading complaints with people, that to have a conversation with a person who saw only the good in life was challenging. No matter what the weather, no matter where we happened to meet, she would say, “Isn’t it a gorgeous day? Can you believe we live here?” I would look up skeptically at the gray sky but nod. From then on, if I saw Donna walking down the street towards me I frantically try to find something positive to say. That’s why it came as a surprise to find out about her personal struggles:
