BANGOR – The Greater Bangor chapter of Mothers & More will host an open house at 7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 27, at the Ruth Rich Hutchins Center, Room 8, Bangor Theological Seminary, 300 Union St.

The annual open house allows Mothers & More to introduce its wide array of support to women of Greater Bangor and beyond. The organization provides opportunities for mothers to connect with one another in ways that assist them in developing their unique identities as women and help them move more confidently through the transitions that affect their family, work and life.

At the open house, participants will discuss “Surviving a Maine Winter.” Included will be relevant cold weather safety tips and survival techniques for long Maine winters – what to do and where to go.

“Mothers & More is about getting together with women just like you and not feeling like you have to play a particular role,” said Kate Dickerson, co-leader of Mothers & More. “We get together as a group to pursue topics and interests that affect us and appeal to us as women, citizens and parents. It’s an opportunity to fully explore your identity – as a mother and a woman.”

The Greater Bangor chapter offers two meetings each month with topical discussions and-or guest speakers, in addition to moms’ nights out, children’s activities and more. Recent meeting topics include “Kids and Consumerism”; “Guardianship, Wills, and Living Wills”; and “Historical and Political Perspective on Women’s Issues.”

The event will be held without children to allow mothers to focus on themselves. Light snacks and drinks will be provided. Prospective members may attend with no obligation to join.

Serving more than 7,000 members nationwide, Mothers & More is a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the lives of mothers through support, education and advocacy. The organization addresses mothers’ needs as individuals and members of society, and promotes the value of all the work mothers do.
