Friday 12.16
Beast: The Race to 1000 Pledges
Hosted by: The Record Co.
“Do you support local music? We do. And we need your help….[continue reading or head straight to www.bostonsessions.org]. We just wrapped up production on a multi-genre compilation album of 13 new songs from 13 Boston-based artists and we’re ready to share it with you. It’s called Beast (Boston Sessions Vol. 1) and it’s available digitally RIGHT NOW.
Not only did we pay each artist’s production costs, but we also paid each artist personally for their contribution to the project. This was a big risk for our small organization and we need your support to make the project a success. In order to continue our work we need 1000 people to pledge support for the project by midnight on December 16th. A pledge could be $10 for an instant download or $25 for a vinyl record. Whatever the amount: every pledge gets us closer to our 1000 pledge goal. Will you help? Share this event and then pledge your support at www.bostonsessions.org.”

Body Kintsugi for Women of Color
Hosted by: CityPop Egleston
“Kintsugi (or kintsukuroi): in practice is a Japanese method for repairing broken ceramics with a special lacquer mixed with gold, silver, or platinum. In ideology it highlights the brokenness of objects and deems them even more beautiful because they were broken…Body Kintsugi is a reflective practice that uses movement, music and language to re-sensitize women to their hearts, bodies and minds. In the end we hope to help women towards loving and accepting their bodies as they are, and not as society tells us we should be.
May this be a practice that allows our light to shine a bit brighter as we re-enter our familiar spaces.”

Where: 3195 Washington St, Boston MA
