  We're kicking off the year with a discussion on the birth search process. Are you thinking about starting a search for your birth family but don't know where to start? Would you like to know more about the process or different options you might have? Kyra Davies and Jenny Lee will share their experiences with birth searches and offer some logistical advice, and we'll hear from you as well.   

  
  

  While this discussion will focus mainly on the early stages of the process this event is open to all adoptees at any stage of their search journey. If you would be interested in facilitating or participating in a discussion on the later stages and outcomes of birth search contact Jenny at jenny@bkadoptee.org.

   

  While we always welcome drop-ins, if you know you're coming please register to make sure we have enough food.
  

  Impact Hub/CIC is located at 50 Milk Street, in downtown Boston. Check in at the front desk, let them know you're here for a BKA event at ImpactHub, and take an elevator up.   

  
  There is street parking and then the Post Office Garage has the best rate: https://www.posquare.com/rates-hours/
  

  Adoptees of all backgrounds are welcome but we request that this be an adoptee-only event.  Thank you for understanding.

  Celine Song's play "Endlings" will receive it's world premiere in 2019 at the American Repertory Theater in Cambridge. 

   

  From the A.R.T. website:

   

  "On the Korean island of Man-Jae, three elderly women spend their dying days diving into the ocean and harvesting seafood with rusty knives. They are “haenyeos”—sea women—and they have no heirs to their millennium-old tradition. Directed by Sammi Cannold (Violet at A.R.T., Ragtime on Ellis Island), Celine Song’s Endlings follows these extraordinary women both on land and underwater as they swim beneath the waves and reach beyond the shores of their tiny island."

  BKA has purchased a group of tickets (Zone B) so that we can all go and sit together. Join us for a very interesting, very timely show!

   

  Note: We have 10 tickets available. Once you have registered and paid, the ticket is yours. Any registrations unpaid after 15 minutes will automatically be cancelled by the website and the slot will reopen.

   

  If we exceed 10 registrations, a wait list will open up. Registered folks will be taken off the wait list in the order they signed up, if/as slots open up.

     

  Thank you!
