Prospector Theater

Lightworkers&nbsp;will be screened at the Prospector Theater at 7 PM on Thursday, October 15. Ken Burns said of the film, “This is great. Scary, sobering, thoughtful…”
Acclaimed director Bobby Roth (Lost, Grey’s Anatomy, Miami Vice) not only asks the question, “What can we do as individuals to make the world a better place?” but also shows how collective action can bring about momentous change. The film interviews artists, activists, educators, and political leaders to explore what moved them to turn their values into action in defense of democracy. They are Lightworkers—people who act to improve the world for all.
Can we all become Lightworkers? Yes, through individual acts of caring and connection. Each of us can make a meaningful difference in the lives of others, and when we work toward a common goal, we can have a lasting impact. With American democracy at grave risk, each of us has a role to play as a Lightworker.
The film has also earned praise from Nicolle Wallace, who said, “The film is wonderful—it touched me deeply,” and Bruce Springsteen, who called it “excellent” and “a great work.”
Join us for this moving film, which may bring tears as well as hope and inspiration. Sign up at the link above where it says "More info here.".
All are welcome, and admission is free. For those who are able, we suggest a donation of $15 at the door to help cover the costs of the evening, primarily the theater rental.

Veterans Park

We’ve been bombarded with lawlessness throughout Trump 2.0. It’s hard to keep track of it all. Just in the last week:
<ul><li>Another ICE shooting nearby in New York, leaving a father wounded and his five-year-old traumatized.</li><li>Growing threats that DHS and FBI personnel will be deployed to polling places on Election Day.</li></ul>
It’s exhausting. And it can make us feel powerless. But we can choose not to give in to that feeling. When we come together, support one another, and make our voices heard, we strengthen our communities and our democracy.
Join us at the No Kings rally to turn concern into action. 
We’ll hear from the Rev. Dr. Whitney Altopp, State Rep. Aimee Berger-Girvalo, comedian and political commentator Noel Casler, and First Selectwoman of Weston Sam Nestor about how we can take power back at the ballot box. There’ll be energizing music, and a welcoming, fun Kids’ Table.
We won’t be deterred, and we won’t stay home. Come stand with friends and neighbors, make a plan to vote early, and make our voices impossible to ignore.
Bring a friend, bring your family, and let's show up for democracy together.
