Earth Day Awareness Film: “We’re All Plastic People Now”
Please join us for a special showing of the documentary, We’re All Plastic People Now&nbsp;on Tuesday, April 28, 2026 from 6:00-7:30pm at the Malden Public Library. A short discussion and Q&amp;A with Eileen Ryan, from Beyond Plastics Greater Boston will follow the film.
“In an era of throw-away ease, convenience has cost us our well-being. Plastics have been found inside our bodies- in our colons, our brains, and even in mothers’ developing wombs. Scientists around the country are sounding the alarm, but without public buy-in, there is little that can be done. How much evidence do we need before we decide to take action?”
Not Rated. (56 min.) (2024)
Movie times are approximate.

Please join us for Movie Night on Wednesday, May 6, 2026: 6:00-8:00pm at the Malden Public Library. We will be showing the movie for Haitian Heritage Month about Mountains. The film stars Atibon Nazaire, Sheila Anozier, and Chris Renois. The film is directed by Monica Sorelle and it has won 11 film festival awards.
“A Haitian demolition worker is faced with the realities of redevelopment as he is tasked with dismantling his rapidly gentrifying neighborhood [in Little Haiti, Miami].” The film explores the changing nature of neighborhoods and how communities change over time. In the Haitian Creole language there is a proverb: "Dèyè mòn gen mòn" which means, “Behind mountains there are mountains.” This is a famous Haitian proverb that roughly means when you overcome one obstacle, there is another greater obstacle or challenge ahead of you. This Haitian proverb speaks to the idea of having resilience in life.
Not Rated (95 min.) (2024) This film is in English and Haitian&nbsp;Creole.&nbsp;97% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
Free snacks will be provided. Movie times are approximate.

Ultimate Tango School of Dance

If you’ve ever watched Argentine Tango and thought, “I could never do that,” this day is for you. Because you can - and we’ll prove it.The Ultimate Tango Experience Open House is designed especially for newcomers. It’s your chance to explore what tango really is: connection, balance, music, and a conversation without words. No experience, no partner, and no fancy shoes required - just curiosity. 
&nbsp;What to Expect
1:30–3:00 PM - Beginner Class A gentle, guided introduction to Argentine Tango. You’ll learn how to walk in harmony with a partner, find your balance, and discover the rhythm that makes this dance unlike any other.
3:00–6:00 PM - Che Tango Practica After class, stay and dance (or simply observe) in a relaxed, social atmosphere. It’s where learning meets fun - with music, friendly dancers, and a chance to see how beginners and advanced dancers share the same floor.
3:30 PM - Performance by Ultimate Tango Teachers and Students A short showcase to inspire you - and show where your very first steps might take you.
 Why Try Tango? Because tango teaches more than dance. It teaches balance, listening, patience, confidence, and connection - all through movement. Many discover that tango helps them move better, think clearer, and connect deeper - both on and off the dance floor. &nbsp;Special Note for the Brave Ones. If you fall in love with tango (and we think you might), there will be a special thank-you discount for those who decide to continue their journey and join the Beginner Course that day.
Good to Know No partner required &nbsp;No experience needed &nbsp;Comfortable clothing and smooth-soled shoes are recommended (you will need to change out of your street shoes, so remember to bring an extra pair) Free entry for newcomers: class + practica included
