Location: Lynch Beach (next to the Rose Garden)
Fire Ceremonies have been used by medicine people for thousands of years to dissolve stuck energy and transform life depleting patterns.

This month the nodes of the moon shift (north node into Aries, south node into Libra). Pluto and Saturn also shift into retrograde. Come and sit by the fire with Zhana Levitsky, Owner of Folk Magic and learn more about what is happening in the cosmos and be guided into a healing meditation to help you center.
What to Bring: A chair or blanket to sit on, a sweatshirt or jacket as it may be cooler by the water, bug spray, a journal and pen. Refreshments and snacks will be served and marshmallows will be available for roasting after the ceremony.

As a lifelong animist raised in Lithuania under soviet occupation, Zhana’s unique perspective can help her clients and students re-frame toxic narratives adopted from consensus culture, and to remember the sacred inter-connectedness and wildness within each of us.

Summer Concert Series at the Gazebo: Whiskey Talk
WhiskeyTalk is a hard driving acoustic 4 piece out of Beverly and Gloucester featuring Carl Gasowski, Jim Kuhns, Paul Howard, and Doug Turnbull. All veterans of Boston area bands, each brings his own unique musical baggage along on a somewhat meandering and genre-bending cross country drive that picks up dialects and influences along the way.
WhiskeyTalk is fronted by 2 songwriters whose most recent bands were punk and bluegrass, and backed by a Rock and Roll rhythm section. Coming from pretty divergent worlds has given us the ability to push each other into and out of our own comfortable genres and come up with a sound that's unique but deferential to its roots. We recently released our first album, Batten Down the Hatches, which is available on all streaming services
Come down to the Beverly Common Gazebo and enjoy the music! And get more information on the fantastic Whisky Talk HERE!

That movie was so bad Williams wouldn’t even score it for Spielberg. A movie so bad that when the Coens wrote it…yes, those Coens, they gave it to someone else to make. Or, thirdly, and perhaps most importantly, you can just sit around and look at Michael B Jordan for 2 hours. Win, win, win.
