Gloucester

YMCA of the North Shore Gala is coming in two parts due to the COVID pandemic this year! Part 1 is a virtual celebration happening in November 2021, with a live in-person celebration being planeed at the new Glen T. MacLeod Cape ann YMCA in Gloucester to follow in the Spring of 2022.

Come join Pathways for Children for a morning full of group games, physical activities, team building, fitness and games that are just plain ole fun. Knucklebones of Cambridge will bring the gear - all you need to bring is yourself and be ready for some active fun! Activities are geared for children aged 3-8.

This summer, stretch, jump, and move your body on the lawn of the Cape Ann Museum Green with instructors from MAGMA. After the workshop, grab some free art supplies from CAM’s Art Cart or try your hand at a self-portrait for Community Portrait Project. Make a day out of it by bringing your lunch and picnicking on the Green while you make art!

Sawyer Free Library and the Cape Ann Museum invite families to a presentation on personal family history.  Learn how to use family records to research your own family and history and learn what life was like for your ancestors! Children will see examples of old-fashioned Cape Ann Samplers and family trees, and then create their very own sampler, and paint their own family tree.
