Upcoming Events and Meetings

November 10, 2019 by fenwaycivic

Dear Members and Friends:

Please see the following upcoming announcements:

1. Fenway Film Series – “Addiction,” November 14, 5:30pm, Fenway Community Center, 1282 Boylston Street
The Fenway Film Series is a series of documentary films that explore issues of urban development. Each film will be chosen for its connection to the Fenway neighborhood’s past, present, and future, and will be followed by an interactive discussion. Join us for a special screening of “Addiction” on Thursday, November 14! The United States is in the midst of the deadliest drug epidemic in its history. In 2017, an estimated 70,000 Americans died from drug overdoses, driven by a dramatic rise in the use of opioids like OxyContin, heroin, and fentanyl. As our nation searches for answers, take an unflinching look at the epidemic through the eyes of those living through it, and stay for a conversation about what Boston is doing to help and how you can be involved. Guest speakers include State Rep. Jon Santiago, Craig Regis (Program Director, Kraft Center for Community Health), and Richard Giordano (Civic Engagement Director, Fenway CDC). Doors open at 5:30pm, movie from 6 to 8pm. Light refreshments will be served. Free to attend, guests are asked to register at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/fenway-film-series-addiction-tickets-79408863047
