Salem Athenaeum

Join us in the Salem Athenaeum garden for a Summer Salon with Dan Kennedy from the School of Journalism at Northeastern University. Technological and social changes, as well as the rise of corporate chain ownership, have hollowed out local newsrooms across the country. Yet a new generation of independent startups prove reasons for hope. How can we revive local news and help spark a revival of civic engagement in a time of political polarization and rising threats to a free press?Dan Kennedy is a professor at Northeastern University and a nationally known media commentator. He has written three books about the future of journalism, most recently What Works in Community News: Media Startups, New Deserts, and the Future of the Fourth Estate, with Ellen Clegg, which was long-listed for a 2025 Massachusetts Book Award. He is a 2019 winner of the Yankee Quill Award, a career recognition from the New England Academy of Journalists. His blog, Media Nation, is online at <a href="https://dankennedy.net/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">dankennedy.net</a>.
Please enter by the Athenaeum garden gate on Botts Ct. (The front door will be locked at 6:00 pm.) Please bring a folding lawn chair if you have one. In case of rain, the salon will be indoors.

It’s a matter of time. 50 years to be exact. And in that time Los Lobos have created an unprecedented body of work, a legacy of greatness. The numbers are staggering: 100+ gigs a year for five decades running, crossing millions of miles to rock millions of fans. And that’s just at the live shows. In between they’ve recorded 17 studio albums, 7 live LPs, 3 compilations, 2 EPs, 2 DVDs, and contributed 40+ guest appearances on their friends’ recordings—all garnering 4 Grammys, an Austin City Limits Hall of Fame induction, the ALMA Ritchie Valens Pioneer Award, NEA and Hispanic Heritage Foundation Honors, Congressional recognitions, plus countless “Keys to the City” and “Los Lobos Day” celebrations. And those are just a few of the highlights. But beyond all the hoopla and applause (and the source of it all, really) is the tremendous heart. Rather, hearts. Cinco corazones. Five blood brothers who have dedicated their off-stage time to helping others, working for peace and justice, penning some of the most literate and important music of their time, transforming the hard cries from the East L.A. barrio into songs of hope, tales of common folk finding ways to endure. The young wolves were weaned on late-night radio’s soul, R&amp;B, and doo-wop. Were cured through the African-American currents of the blues, jazz, and rock ‘n’ roll. An amalgam. As proud Chicanos, their songs have always glistened with the distillation from their Mexican and Latin American roots— nourished by Norteña and rancheras, buoyed by bolero and cumbias, soaring on the rhythms of son huasteco and son jarocho. Los Lobos have helped spread the rich diversity of cultures across every continent, throughout the global community. Kids in Antwerp now know about Aztlán. Residents of Luxor and Ghana are crooning Lalo Guerrero. People from Laos and Bulgaria are belting “La Bamba”—all thanks to The Wolves as cultural ambassadors. Talk about a living legacy. Talk about a productive half century. And in the true rebel spirit, they did it all on their own terms, against formula. For the ages. To our delight. Quite simply, they are one of the tightest, one of the best, one of the most prolific bands ever. And, amazingly, with the original founding members as the pack the entire time. Unprecedented. As their liner notes put it, quite simply: “Los Lobos still are David Hidalgo, Louie Pérez, Jr., Cesar Rosas, Conrad Lozano, Steve Berlin.”

At some point, every homeowner starts asking the same questions.
Should we invest in renovations?&nbsp;<a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/whats-your-next-move-should-you-stay-renovate-or-move-tickets-1993501188719?aff=oddtdtcreator" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"></a>
Is it time to downsize?
Would moving put us in a better financial position?
Or is staying exactly where we are the right decision?
If you've found yourself asking any of these questions, you're not alone.
Join us for an interactive workshop designed to help homeowners better understand their options before making one of life's biggest financial decisions.
Whether you're thinking about making a move this year, a few years from now, or you're simply curious about today's housing market, you'll leave with practical information that can help you plan your next steps with confidence.
<a href="https://null" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Click Here to Register.</a>
<h4>During this workshop we'll discuss:</h4>
• How today's housing market is affecting homeowners
• When renovating makes financial sense, and when it doesn't
• How to determine whether moving is the right choice
• What buyers are looking for in today's market
• How to prepare today, even if your move is years away
• Live questions and discussion
<h4>Who should attend?</h4>
This workshop is designed for homeowners who are exploring their options. You do not need to be planning to sell your home to benefit from this workshop.
<h4>What makes this workshop different?</h4>
This isn't a sales presentation.
There won't be any high-pressure tactics or sales pitches.
Instead, you'll join a small group of homeowners for an open conversation where you can ask questions, explore your options, and leave with a clearer understanding of what makes the most sense for your situation.
To encourage discussion and ensure everyone has the opportunity to participate, attendance is limited to 10 homeowners.
Light refreshments will be provided.
We look forward to seeing you.
