Next up in the Artspace Gallery: Carnival Studies Opening on Friday, September 11, 5-8pm Wander around a carnival and you’ll see it all: beauty, heartbreak, gaudiness, mystery, ugliness the pleasures are simultaneously cheap and dear. An eerie nostalgia is baked into both a Polaroid photograph and into the carnival experience. “Carnival Studies is a series of photographs I took over several carnival seasons in Massachusetts.

Who is Molly Brennan? Molly Brennan enjoyed a 30 year career as a professional stage actor in Chicago, but the Covid pandemic changed her path, and she had to find other ways to make a living.

Greenfield Accessible Arts Coalition Presents: The Greenfield Art Summit RSVP HERE Friday, September 25 • 9:30 AM Greenfield Public Library What is GAAC? The Greenfield Accessible Arts Coalition (GAAC) was born out of a shared desire to make the arts more accessible in Greenfield. Recognizing the need to stop working in silos, brick and motor Greenfield-based arts nonprofits came together to create a coordinated network that supports and grows the arts community. What is the Greenfield Art Summit? The Greenfield Art Summit is designed to foster genuine connections between local artists and arts organizations. Using an open space format, participants will help shape the conversation around shared challenges, opportunities, and ideas. Together, we'll identify community needs, share resources, and spark new collaborations that strengthen Greenfield's creative community. Am I Invited? Artists of all kinds are welcome. Whether you're a writer, musician, painter, filmmaker, cartoonist, actor, director, playwright, burlesque or drag performer, puppeteer, comedian, humorist, DJ, clown, photographer—or work in any other creative discipline—we'd love to have you join us. If you consider yourself a creative person, this event is for you! RSVP HERE

Join us on Monday, September 28 as we celebrate Good Neighbor Day with “Building Community Resilience", guided small-group conversations to help neighbors share stories and build meaningful local ties. True climate resilience doesn't start with a checklist; it starts with a relationship. It’s about knowing who lives next door, understanding who might need a check-in during severe weather, and building the kind of trust that turns a group of people living on the same street into a real community. That’s why Greenfield Public Library is proud to be one of just 40 participants nationwide selected for the Sustainable Libraries Initiative’s Community Resilience Through Small & Rural Libraries Pilot Project. Through this national initiative, we are working to strengthen local ties and build a more adaptive, supportive community from the ground up. There are two free sessions available, at 10:00 am and at 2:00 pm. Space is limited and registration is required: Session #1 (10:00 - 11:30 am): https://forms.gle/LZTX7DMPLJ2q4SRg6 Session #2 (2:00 - 3:30 pm): https://forms.gle/WSu76s1uTSNaAZqeA Light refreshments will be served. For more information, contact Jeremiah Rood at [email protected] or call 413)772 - 1544. This program, sponsored by the Friends of the Greenfield Public Library, is free and intended for ages…

Award-winning educator, sexuality researcher and podcaster Jane Fleishman, PhD, MEd, MS, CSE delivers an egaging talk Ain’t No Stopping Us Now: The Pleasures and Pitfalls of Sexuality as We Age. As we age, we know ourselves and our bodies better. Yet societal taboos against discussing sexuality—especially when it comes to older adults—can make these discussions awkward. Fleishman says there “ain’t no stopping us now” as we age sexually. Sexual challenges may increase distress but if we can embrace the awkward, we will find our way to new heights of sexual pleasure. This workshop will offer a unique opportunity for frank discussion. As a seasoned sexuality professional, our presenter will apply current research and resources, offer tips and toys for older adults. And we will have ample time for questions and confidential discussion about sexuality-related issues. Join us for an enjoyable and unique afternoon! RSVP requested. Jane Fleishman earned her PhD at Widener University Center for Human Sexuality Studies at the age of 62.
