Boston BCBS Gathering

We warmly invite you to join us for an evening of connection and community as we celebrate the spirit of the Barre Center for Buddhist Studies and strengthen our Boston-area community.

Thursday, October 23, 2025 • 6:00 – 7:30 PM ET
Cambridge Peace House

Our new Executive Director, Melissa Gopnik, together with Sue McGilvray (Board Chair) and William Edelglass (Director of Studies), looks forward to meeting you in person and hearing about your aspirations for BCBS.

We hope the evening will also offer you a chance to reconnect with friends from BCBS and enjoy a sense of sangha close to home.

We’ll gather in a living-room-style space for conversation and connection, with light vegetarian appetizers and refreshments — including vegan and gluten-free options.

Please RSVP by October 10 so we can save your place at this special gathering.

Kindly share any dietary or accessibility needs when you RSVP so we can ensure you feel fully welcome and comfortable.

We look forward to welcoming you and sharing this meaningful evening together.
