Presented by Company One Theatre at Online/Virtual Space

Robust planning for the summer in Upham’s Corner ended when Covid-19 struck. On Friday, July 17 at 1pm, join us as we reimagine a summer that serves our youth under these conditions. On Friday, July 17 at 1pm, join us for a conversation with Dudley Street Neighborhood Initiative Director of Programs Ramona Lisa Alexander, City of Boston Chief of Arts & Culture Kara Elliott-Ortega, and Co-Owner of HipStory Tim Hall, as we reimagine a summer that serves our youth under these conditions.
 

This episode will be moderated by Summer L. Williams. Creative producer: Jasmine Brooks. Technical producer: Mads Massey.

 

C1’s Better Future Series is a multi-part digital gathering bringing together Boston’s artists, community leaders, and policymakers to understand the needs of our neighborhoods and reimagine the future of our city, both in response to the current pandemic and our ongoing fight against the deep-rooted culture of white supremacy.

Broadcast live on C1’s Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube, each monthly episode will focus on one of Boston’s neighborhoods, highlight the issues that matter most to its residents, and amplify opportunities for viewers to make a difference. Each episode will be anchored by an organization that is making an impact in that community, a policymaker with a focus on that community, and an artist whose work intersects with that community.

In conjunction with this series, Company One Theatre will also be donating to social justice-driven organizations working toward the community concerns discussed in each episode.
