October 30- ECAT SCREENING- INTO THE SWAMP

Join us for a special screening of a three-part film exploring the Bridgewater Triangle, a familiar landscape with no shortage of legends, mysteries, and stories that have kept people looking into the woods a little more carefully.

Produced by Easton Community Access Television and created by filmmaker Joe Taft, a familiar face at ECAT where he serves as a production director, the project brings his filmmaking talents to the forefront

Come show your support for independent filmmaking. Tickets are just $5 and include all three episodes; refreshments will be available for purchase. So grab a seat, settle in, and see what the Bridgewater Triangle has been hiding.

11/1 -Coffee, Closets & Community at the Hall

Come spend a Sunday afternoon shopping, sipping and socializing with friends and neighbors at Oakes Ames Memorial Hall!

On Sunday, November 1 from 12–4 PM, the Hall will be filled with great pieces at great prices, all donated by members of our community. Shop your neighbors’ closets for clothing for women, men, children and infants, plus shoes, accessories and more.

Grab a cup of coffee and some refreshments, browse for a great find, catch up with friends and enjoy an afternoon at the Hall. This is more than a clothing sale. This is a fun community gathering where you can shop, socialize and support a great cause at the same time.

Best of all, every purchase helps support the Oakes Ames Memorial Hall Elevator Project and our efforts to make this historic community building accessible to everyone.

Great pieces. Great prices. Good company. A great cause!

11/13- Paint Night with Easton Shovel Town Cultural District

11/26 Community Thanksgiving Dinner

Thanksgiving is about the food, of course. But the best part of the holiday has always been who’s sitting around the table. For the second year, Oakes Ames Memorial Hall and Easton Women of Today, Inc. are setting the table and inviting the community to join us for a free Thanksgiving Dinner.

Come for a delicious traditional dinner, enjoy the conversation, and meet someone new. Bring the family or simply come as you are. It’s about making room for one another and creating a place where neighbors can gather, connect, and celebrate Thanksgiving together.

The dinner is open to the Easton community, but seating is limited to 80. Please RSVP to Joan at 508-692-8060 to reserve your spot so we can make sure there’s a place for everyone.

11/29 Holiday Tree Decorating & Community Celebration

Join us at Oakes Ames Memorial Hall for an afternoon of holiday music, hot cocoa, tree decorating and community spirit as we bring our new holiday tradition to life!

Our sponsored Memorial Trees will be lining the Hall lawn, each decorated in honor or memory of someone special. Families and friends are invited to decorate their sponsored trees, and everyone is welcome to help decorate our beautiful 14-foot Community Tree!

Stop by to hang your personalized ornament, enjoy a cup of hot cocoa, listen to some holiday music or simply say hello to friends and neighbors while enjoying the festive atmosphere.

You don’t need to sponsor a tree or purchase an ornament to join us. We would love to see the community come together to celebrate the season and make some new memories at the Hall.

Hall volunteers will be on hand from 11 AM to 3 PM, weather permitting. The Hall will also be open for warming up and restroom access.

Our Holiday Tree display and celebration is proudly sponsored by North Easton Savings Bank

WEDNESDAY NIGHTS: Yoga with Andrea

Some days, your mind is racing before your feet even hit the floor. That’s where a little time to slow down can make a difference.

Join trauma-informed yoga instructor Andrea Hobkirk-Magararu for a gentle hour focused on easing stress, calming the nervous system, and reconnecting with your body. This isn’t about perfect poses or pushing yourself. It’s about breathing, moving at your own pace, and learning simple techniques that can help when anxiety, panic, or everyday overwhelm start to take over. Andrea brings years of experience teaching yoga and mindfulness meditation to women in crisis and creates a supportive, welcoming space to simply be where you are.

Yoga for Peace on Wednesday, October 7 at 6pm

Please bring your own mat and water

Come as you are. Leave with a little more calm. Register: andrea_hobkirk@yahoo.com. Venmo: @Andrea-Hobkirk
