MSAC is preparing to re-open our facility for group programs and continues to serve the community in the meantime!
Current COVID guidelines affecting MSAC operations (last updated June 10, 2021)
Note: we are working on a simpler, more clear version of our guidelines.
MSAC Re-opening plans
MSAC and FEAST staff and volunteers are working hard on preparation for the next phase of our gradual and safe re-opening. State and City COVID guidelines will continue to be followed regarding masking or not, etc., and we are transitioning to self-screening for COVID symptoms and temperature-taking.
Two dozen spring classes are on Zoom and outdoors currently, plus weekly FEAST meals and bimonthly foot clinics at our facility. On June 14, we start registration (online, by mail and drop-off) for 34 weekly Summer class series (July-September) offered online, in-person at 58 Barre Street, and outdoors at a variety of locations including Hubbard Park, Green Mount Cemetery and others.
Starting the week of June 21, we will host selected returning drop-in groups (including games) and our Annual Meeting on June 22 (and via Zoom video/phone, and featuring Willem Lange sharing a story in the entertainment portion), while other groups remain outdoors. During the week of July 5, Summer classes start, as will FEAST Curbside Picnic Inside-Outside options on Tuesdays and Fridays.
