Love this and support your effort. What can I do to help? Want me to do something specific, like suggest movies in a future weekend? Please let me know!!
I have secretly wished for a Boston version of NYC-based theskint.com. We need a place for awesome, curated events like these. No filler.
(I’m old enough to remember that thebostoncalendar.com grew out of r/Boston . But it lost detail and some magic as it commercialized. Maybe this is an antidote?)

The one on Essex in Cambridge lasted a whole two days before someone ruined it.

30 year teacher of the Deaf here. The number 1 option is a residential placement at the Learning Center in Framingham. While sending your child to a school away from home may seem callous or even cruel, it is the accepted and favored option for most members of the Deaf community
. Residential schools are staffed by Deaf people and have historically been the place where Deaf children become fluent in American Sign Language, familiar with Deaf culture and develop strong and lifelong friendships with other Deaf kids who share the same challenges but more importantly, the same language (ASL) as their own
TLC is a private school, and one of the few in Mass. Most other states in the country have a residential school for their Deaf kids, but MA. does not have this option.
Its true that some cities and towns have higher quality schools than others, but in the case of your Deaf child, its been my experience that they will have a more complete and fulfilling education at a residential school staffed and equipped for Deaf children.
Placement in a traditional education setting (esp since he/she is profoundly Deaf) will only prove to be extremely isolating and difficult for your child.
Please, please, please.....start sign language classes now. All of you. It may be the single most important thing you can do
Good luck. I really wish you the best!!

Hey OP! For those of us living in other cities and maybe looking to put together a list like this, how would you go about it? As in are there certain websites you used to find these events that might apply nationwide?

Any effort spent towards canvas and not spent tending to the fields is an abomination unto the lord. Are you a heretic?

Thanks, OP. Probably would help even more if you add the dates of the weekends in the title!

It’s not metro west but Danvers or Lynnfield might not be bad options. Both have Good schools, good services, plus private deaf school and NS Education Coop a town away. Cheaper than Winchester.

Banksy is a criminal and a thug. I think he needs to be arrested and learn to do art on a canvass.

Those were from 2010. Definitely long gone.

Hi,
I know you want to stay metrowest but I'll just put it out there. Clarke Northampton is a great option. Northampton is also a sweet little town with affordable homes.

If the district sends your child to an out of district placement because they can’t meet their needs, they pay and provide transport. We have that now for my daughter. Unfortunately she travels and hour to school each day, fortunately they arrange and pay for her transport.
