Community Calendar

In 2025, CitySpace is hosting a series of mini Pop-Up Markets on the first Saturday of the month from 4-7PM during CitySpace Bluegrass and Art Walk Easthampton.

Each service includes an uplifting talk that touches on real-life experiences—like relationships, resilience, and personal growth—offering down-to-earth reflections to help you navigate life with clarity, compassion, and a sense of connection.

The healing portion of the service begins with a peaceful, guided meditation accompanied by live harp music, creating a calm and supportive space. Those who wish may then receive gentle, hands-on energy healing from certified Spiritualist healers while seated.

The service concludes with a demonstration of mediumship from the podium, where the medium shares messages from loved ones in spirit. These brief, heartfelt messages are intended to provide evidence of the continuity of life and offer comfort, healing, and connection.

“Fredella Mae's Daughter Is A Storyteller” explores three powerful, emotionally charged tales woven together with poetry interludes and short personal narratives. Come journey through riveting tales that move people’s souls and make you reflect on your humanness through adaptations of centuries old West African story, Gullah Geechee folklore of South Carolina, and a “John Redding Goes To Sea"— a short story by Zora Neale Hurston.
