Tuesday, May 19 at 7:30 PM: <a href="https://theumbrellaarts.org/performing-arts/films-umbrella" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Arco</a> (2025, Rated PG) | English dub of French film | 1 hour 29 minutes | Directed by Ugo Bienvenu.
When ten-year-old Iris follows a streak of color falling from the sky, she doesn't find treasure at the end of the rainbow — she finds Arco, a boy from nine centuries in the future, stranded in a world he can barely recognize as his own. This critically acclaimed French animated film is dubbed with English-speaking voice talent such as Natalie Portman, Mark Ruffalo, Will Ferell, and America Ferrera. A thoughtful, adventurous, hand-drawn tale for the whole family.
Film tickets are $12.50 (also available at the door). Optional add-on meal from <a href="https://www.adelitaconcord.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Adelita</a> (menu coming soon). Meal orders close at 12:00 PM on Monday, May 18, or if they sell out before then.

Concord Free Public Library

A life-size bronze likeness of 19th-century literary figure and women’s rights advocate Margaret Fuller has been donated to Massachusetts’ Concord Free Public Library Corporation and will soon be unveiled. The statue was made in 1985 by distinguished American sculptor Penelope Jencks, who is known for her public works that include the Eleanor Roosevelt Monument in New York City. 
 
The Fuller statue was commissioned by planner and preservationist Ronald Lee Fleming, who had it displayed at his home in Cambridge, MA. He recently decided to donate it to the Concord Library. 
 
Penelope Jencks, reflecting on the genesis of the statue, had this to say, “I was introduced to Margaret Fuller by Ron Fleming back in 1985. He had seen a wonderful actress give a presentation of Margaret Fuller and fell in love with her. He asked me if I could make a sculpture of her by the end of May, and as it was already April, I said I would try but who knows!” After an intense two months of both reading about Fuller and working on the statue, Jencks finished the project on schedule. 
 
The nonprofit Concord Public Library Corporation owns and oversees the William Munroe Special Collections and is dedicated to developing, preserving, and widely sharing the historical documents, arts, and ephemera in the collection. 
Fleming’s recent decision to donate the statue has been met with delight and deep appreciation. 
 
According to Anke Voss, curator of the library’s William Munroe Special Collections, “Margaret Fuller was among the earliest and most influential champions of women’s rights in the United States, as well as a central figure in the Transcendentalist movement. We are deeply grateful for this generous donation and for the opportunity to honor her legacy here in Concord with this stunning sculpture by Penelope Jencks.”
The statue is presently undergoing restoration by Skylight Studios in Woburn, MA, and once finished, it will be installed and displayed in the library’s Garden Retreat. The restoration is being funded by The Munroe Society of the Library Corporation—an affinity group dedicated to the preservation and advancement of the William Munroe Special Collections. 
 
The news of the acquisition and imminent unveiling, shared privately among some 19th-century literary scholars, has generated a great deal of excitement. Megan Marshall, Pulitzer Prize-winning scholar and author of Margaret Fuller: A New American Life, writes, “Penelope Jencks’s Margaret Fuller embodies the determination, intellectuality, and boldness of spirit we know, from her writing and from her friends’ testimony, the flesh-and-blood woman possessed in such great measure. It’s fitting that Margaret Fuller will be situated just outside the library that Emerson helped to start. I'm thrilled that this beautiful work will be in public view at last!”
The Concord Free Public Library has scheduled the unveiling for Saturday, May 23, at 2:00 pm. Speakers include Penelope Jencks, Ronald Lee Fleming, and Megan Marshall.

128 Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric Stays Independent

128 Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric

128 Announces Local Independent Ownership For Good One question that Ryan Williams, President of 128 Plumbing, Heating, Cooling, and Electric, keeps getting is: “Did you sell?” and the answer is always In recent years, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and other home services have seen significant consolidation. In Greater Boston, 128 is one of the only home service companies that remain local, private, and independently-owned. This led Williams to seek out organizations that aren't just in business to sell, but to thrive long-term. He found the Tugboat Institute®, focusing on value, purpose, and people-driven businesses planning to remain independently-owned for 100+ years through their Certified Evergreen® status. 128 applied with the help of its entire team and received the honor of becoming Certified Evergreen® a year later. Watch 128's announcement here: https://youtu.be/g5rsiZW7B1k?si=KeR42U8H9GXnCJkH Does this impact customers? Customers want reliability and support for years down the road from their home service company, and choosing an independently-owned company can reduce uncertainties. Does this impact tradespeople? Ownership can influence company culture, communication, alignment, and priorities. With a labor shortage, it's important there are industry leaders willing to continually invest in education, which 128 is proud to offer its own school. Choose Local and Independent. 128 is proud to announce its continued local and independent ownership to bring stability and confidence to employees, customers, and communities for generations. Williams states that "128 answers to its customers and employees, not investors", and is not for sale. 128 Plumbing, Heating, Cooling, and Electric was founded in 1992 and is a top home service company in Eastern MA. 128 is known for its 5-star service, base+ membership, Finish Strong Friday®, and its Red Sox partnership.
