The umanist Association of Massachusetts

So, what do we do?

The Massachusetts Humanist Association membership participates in a wide variety of activities.

• We hold meetings on current issues each month. These meetings are open to the public and are stimulating and informative - they are frequently held at Harvard University.
• Events, such as our solstice luncheons, cultural outings and summer picnics, foster social interchange and good times. Here are some pics from our Summer 2000 luncheon!
• A discussion group which examines and critiques Humanist related writings meets monthly also. Participation is by invitation.
• We maintain an extensive library  and provide a broad range of services to both the general public and the Humanist community in particular.
• We sponsor the Atheist Discussion Group which meets the first Monday of each month at The Philip Brookes House in Harvard Yard at 7pm.
