Bryn Mawr Film Institute

MLMAS's next session turns to two composers of the Romantic era who were far more than contemporaries — they were close friends in the same city, each other's fiercest champions, and in one case, critic and subject. Our hour-long program features two works written eight years apart: one by a young master at the peak of his career, the other by an admirer who, after praising his friend's piece in print in famously glowing terms, eventually tried his own hand at the very same intimate form — in the very same key.
This isn't the concert-hall version of classical music you might be picturing. No orchestra, no formality — just three instruments in close, real-time conversation, trading melody and momentum back and forth in a form built for genuine intimacy rather than spectacle. One piece is buoyant and assured; the other, written during a darker chapter, carries real emotional weight. Together they trace a friendship, a tribute, and an answer.
Join us as we ask what it means for one artist to publicly admire another — and then quietly try to meet him on his own ground.
This is a free event. No preparation required — only curiosity, an open mind, and a willingness to listen intently. Hope to see you there.&nbsp; Please register at www.mlmas.org.Join us in the Community Room at Bryn Mawr Film Institute6:00 - 6:30 Meet and Greet6:30 - 7:30 Listening Session7:30 - 8:00 Discussion

Impact: Reflections of 9/11: Works by George Robert Overhiser Jr. Gallery Talk: Sunday, September 20, 11:15 a.m. Bryn Mawr Presbyterian Church Gallery/Fullerton Room

Artist George Robert “Bob” Overhiser Jr. will discuss Impact: Reflections of 9/11, a moving exhibition of abstract works inspired by his experience as a survivor of the September 11, 2001, attacks.
Overhiser was inside the South Tower of the World Trade Center when the plane struck. After escaping the building, he took shelter beside a vendor cart—a moment that would later become central to his artistic response to the tragedy. His works on canvas and stainless steel explore the ways memory, trauma, survival, and resilience can be expressed through abstraction. The reflective surfaces of the stainless-steel works evoke the distorted images and fragmented scenes one might have seen reflected in the shiny metal of the vendor cart.
The public is invited to begin by viewing the exhibition in the Gallery, followed by a conversation with Overhiser in the Fullerton Room, where he will share the personal experiences and creative process behind this powerful collection.
Overhiser is the founder of Portrait Portfolio LLC. He earned a degree in Visual Studies from Dartmouth College and a Master of Architecture from the University of Pennsylvania. His artwork has been exhibited and created since 2012.Impact: Reflections of 9/11 will be in the Bryn Mawr Presbyterian Church Gallery, September 13 through October 25.

There will be plenty of children’s activities, lawn games, interactive chalk art displays, character appearances and face painting. Our local businesses in the area will also be well-represented at the event. Participating stores in the circle will be open for shopping as well.&nbsp;
As in previous years, the Circle at Sundown is dedicated to promoting sustainability and minimizing its impact on the environment. Local civic groups who are working hard to make Newtown Square and its surrounding communities more liveable will be on hand to share information and answer questions.

Attendees are encouraged to join in the celebration of a more sustainable future! The fun kicks off at 3pm. Please note that there will be some seating available, but guests are encouraged to bring their own lawn chairs, especially if they plan to stay for the duration of the festivities.

<h1>From Childhood to Independence: A Night at Longwood Gardens with Amigos de Jesús</h1>
In a country where poverty, limited educational opportunities and economic insecurity can leave young people with few choices for their futures, Amigos de Jesús is working to create another possibility: helping vulnerable children grow into educated, healthy and independent adults with the skills and opportunities to build their lives in Honduras.
On Thursday, October 15, 2026, Amigos de Jesús will bring that story to Longwood Gardens for Growing Together with Amigos, an evening celebrating the children and young adults of Amigos and inviting the greater Philadelphia community to become part of their journey.
Amigos de Jesús provides a safe and nurturing home for vulnerable children in Honduras, but its work does not end with providing a safe place to live. The organization walks alongside children from childhood into adulthood, providing education, healthcare, emotional support, faith formation, life skills and opportunities designed to prepare them for healthy, independent lives.
“Our goal isn't simply to care for a child today,” said Kelley Jackson, President and CEO of Amigos de Jesús. “We have to ask what success looks like when that child becomes an adult. Are they educated? Are they healthy? Do they have the skills and confidence to work, manage their lives and build a future within the realities of Honduras? That is the journey we are committed to.”
Guests attending Growing Together with Amigos are invited to enjoy Longwood Gardens throughout the day before gathering in the Fountain Room from 5:30 to 9:30 p.m. for a cocktail reception, stories and updates from Honduras, and a private illuminated fountain show.
The evening is designed not only to raise critical funds for the mission, but also to introduce new people throughout the region to Amigos de Jesús and the many ways individuals, families, schools, churches and businesses can become involved.
Tickets are $200 per person and include untimed admission to Longwood Gardens for the day, the evening reception and private illuminated fountain show.
