This page includes a sampling of various events taking place in the coming weeks, some at Emerson Church and some at other venues around town. Emerson hosts many events that are conducted by outside organizations. Some of these events are private, but a large number are open to the public. The public events are shown on this page. The organizations conducting these events may be commercial tenants renting Emerson’s facilities, or they may be supported in some way by Emerson Church.
