Friends of the Wendell Meetinghouse The Friends of the Wendell Meetinghouse is a tax exempt nonprofit corporation dedicated to preserving, maintaining, and protecting the Wendell Meetinghouse.

Friends of the Wendell Meetinghouse is a tax exempt nonprofit corporation dedicated to restoring and preserving the Wendell Meetinghouse as a center for spiritual, cultural, and community programs. Our efforts are coordinated by a Board of Directors, officers, and members and are carried out with the help and support of many Friends and neighbors. The Friends of the Wendell Meetinghouse was create

d to care for the building when the Wendell Congregational Church was no longer able to meet the challenge. In the spring of 2002 the Wendell Church sold the building to the Friends of the Wendell Meetinghouse for $1. An agreement was reached between the Wendell Church and the Friends that the building would be preserved and maintained according to the standards established by the Secretary of the Interior for the treatment of historic buildings, and also that the building would remain available for gatherings of a spiritual nature such as weddings, funerals, religious services and celebrations.

ROOTS AWAKENING: EXPRESSIVE MOVEMENT & WRITING CLASS FOR ADULTS
- Intro to series with Seal LaMadeleine -
Thursday, March 26, 2026 (9:30-11:30 am)
Series continues 4/2, 4/9 and 4/16 at Town Hall

Want to connect to the energies of spring? The flow of rest and awakening? Want to make space for some meaningful, playful movement and creativity? Please join us for an introductory class at the Wendell Meetinghouse!

Drawing on inspiring music & somatic and nature awareness prompts, we will explore our own and collective creative movement. Class themes range from sap flowing to animals awakening in spring! Warmup includes floor stretching and gentle exercises inspired by Tai Chi and other modalities. Movement reflection, mirroring and witnessing unite us as a group, with space to decide your level of interaction. Each class builds gradually from gentle to invigorating movement, culminating with writing or artwork as a way to deepen the creative exploration.

$10-$20 (or pay what you can), register with Seal (978-544-0269, [email protected]) or just come!

This introductory class is part of the Wendell Meetinghouse Community Arts & Conversations series, and supported in-part by the Friends of the Wendell Meetinghouse and the Community Foundation of North Central Massachusetts. Subsequent classes will be held April 2, 9 and 16 at the Wendell Town Hall.
