On May 1 at 7pm there will be a special screening of short films at the Abbot Public Library in Marblehead. The films come from the Raw Art Works Real to Reel Filmschool and are in celebration of the 25th anniversary of the Marblehead Task Force Against Discrimination (TFAD).

Following the screening, participants will be privy to a discussion and Q & A session with a representative of Raw Art Works. RAW is a 26 year old youth arts nonprofit based in Lynn. They believe that kids should be seen and heard and they pursue their mission to “ignite the desire to create and confidence to succeed in underserved youth.”

Today, RAW is a nationally recognized organization and cultural anchor in Lynn that helps at-risk youth with a creative outlet to the streets.
Organized with the Marblehead Task Force Against Discrimination, this event helps to promote their mission to work again hatred and bigotry and to celebrate and strengthen Marblehead’s diverse community.

marathonWhether you love the hot weather and can’t wait to get outside or you hate it and need air-conditioned cover, Marblehead has it all. For sun-lovers, there is the Boston Marathon and Fenway and for sun-haters, check out Gloucester’s Hammond Castle or the Symphony Hall Pops concert.

Also upcoming is the marking of the 25th anniversary of the Marblehead Task Force Against Discrimination (TFAD), to be held at Marblehead’s Abbot Public Library.
