The holiday spirit was abundant at our first ever Winter Wonderland event, as over 90 children of our community and their families engaged in an afternoon of fun activities together. The joyful afternoon included cookie decorating, sculpting fun, ornament and card making, videogame play, a photoboth, air hockey and foosball games, and of course a visit from Santa. Everyone enjoyed pizza generously donated by Pizzeria 260.
It was a beautiful celebration of family, community, and the holiday season.
Please enjoy the photographs of the event.

Our annual Flag Day event was a great success with performances by Shoqata Labëria, and the St. George Cathedral dancers. The delicious Albanian meal was generously donated by Shkodra Byrek. Pizzeria 260 supported the event with pizza for the children. We thank both of these Albanian establishments for their generosity. We thank all who attended and we hope you enjoy the photos of the event.

The 2nd annual festival was a celebration of the artistry and authenticity that defines Albanian cinema today. Over four days we honored the filmmakers, dreamers, and visionaries who are shaping a new chapter in Albania’s cultural narrative. From the opening garden ceremony to the awards ceremony at the Gala, the festival was a display of Albanian pride. Proceeds from the event were shared with the Albanians Fighting Cancer organization.

A book launch was hosted by St. George Cathedral, Pan Federation Vatra – Boston, & the Fan S. Noli Library & Cultural Center. In this compelling second volume, author Ilir Ikonomi explores the later years of Fan Noli, a towering figure in both Albanian and American history.

The 1st annual roundtable discussion featuring Albanian and Albanian Americans who work in the healthcare field was held and offered high school, college, and graduate students the opportunity to gain valuable insights, advice, and support from those who have walked the path before. This event was well attended and very successful. We extend our gratitude to the Albanian American Medical Society for their valuable support.
The Building Bridges program is an ongoing initiative aimed at providing mentorship, guidance, and encouragement to the next generation of Albanian Americans by connecting them with professionals in various fields. Stay tuned for other Building Bridges events.
