ABOUT our event:
Last year at our inaugural Family STEM Day event, we had well over 1,000 visitors with more than 40 hands-on activities and interactive presentations with 23 organizations. We are going to do this again! We’d love you to be a part of this year’s fun!
Our 2nd Family STEM Day is coming up very soon! This event will celebrate and highlight our organization and its mission of promoting STEM initiatives happening in our community. 
Open to families, students, and community members of all ages, Family STEM Day is an opportunity for organizations to highlight their mission and work, engage with families, and inspire future generations of scientists, engineers, and innovators. We will have lots of hands-on exhibits, interactive demonstrations and lots of big and small ways STEM is part of our lives. 
We will be showcasing programs that have benefited from foundation support, including: the Adult Learning Center’s Xploration Program, the United Way of Greater Nashua’s Wee Read initiative in addition to many others. Gloria McCarthy, co-founder of BSMM, said, “We are thrilled beyond words by the number of organizations willing to contribute their time and energy in support of the Brian S McCarthy Foundation’s Family STEM Day. This event is not only a celebration of science, technology, engineering, and math—it is a deeply personal way for us to honor and share Brian’s many passions with the community that he served for so many years.”

Thinking about adding an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) or an in-law apartment to your property? 
An accessory dwelling unit (ADU) or in-law apartment can mean a lot of things. A place for aging parents to live independently but close by. A landing pad for an adult child. A future rental. A flexible space that adapts as life does. Whatever's drawing you to the idea, the questions tend to be the same: Is it allowed where I live? How much will it cost? Where would it even go? And how do I make sure it actually works?
Join us in the showrooms of the <a href="https://www.nashuahomedesigncenter.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Nashua Home Design Center</a> for a relaxed, conversational morning with David Bryan, President &amp; CEO, and Gates Bryan, Design Specialist, of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.blackdogbuilders.com/" rel="nofollow noopener">Blackdog Design/Build/Remodel</a>. Between them, they've helped countless New Hampshire and Massachusetts families think through these exact decisions, and they'll share what works, what doesn't, and what to think about before you start.What We’ll Cover:
<ul><li>What an ADU actually is, and what your town will (and won't) allow, between location, access, size, and utilities</li><li>The design constraints worth knowing about early</li><li>How to make an ADU feel like a natural extension of your home, not an addition tacked on</li><li>The family side of the conversation: finances, life changes, and how today's design should anticipate tomorrow's needs</li><li>Permitting in southern New Hampshire, and how the rules vary town to town</li><li>What it really takes to generate rental income from an ADU</li><li>The factors that genuinely move the needle on construction costs</li><li>How to choose the right people to work with</li><li>Smart, practical kitchen and bath design for smaller footprints</li></ul>
Come with questions. Leave with clarity, and a much better sense of what's possible on your own property!
Space is limited to 20 guests, so we keep things small&nbsp;enough for real conversation.
