Join or Die Film Screening

September 10, 5:30-7:30 PM  
Roger Williams Park Casino

 

A film about why you should join a club…and why the fate of America depends on it.

Directed by Rebecca Davis and Pete Davis, Join or Die follows the story of America’s civic unraveling through the journey of Robert Putnam, whose legendary “Bowling Alone” research into American community decline may hold the answers to our democracy’s present crisis. For a synopsis and trailer, visit JoinOrDieFilm.com.

Join the Roger Williams Park Conservancy on September 10 for a free screening of the film at the Casino! Doors open at 5:30 PM, film screening at 6 PM.

Consider donating to support the Conservancy’s important work building community in the Park! Register for this free documentary film screening online.

Calling all nonprofit, community and civic groups! Immediately following the film, we’ll be hosting a “Joining Fair.” Sign up to showcase your group’s volunteer or club opportunities! (Please plan to bring your own table, and feel free to partner with other groups if you’d like to share a table).

The community screening is presented in partnership with AARP Rhode Island, The Providence Eye, and Leadership Rhode Island.

We're so excited to welcome Julie Gearan back for another Slow Looking in Color and Line workshop at Roger Williams Park! This time, we're gathering at the Rose Garden (near the Elmwood Ave. entrance, and across the street from the Betsey Williams Cottage) on Sunday, October 18, 12-2 PM.

Just bring yourself, your creative spirit, and a chair (if you'd like) to this free drawing workshop. All experience levels welcome, and supplies are provided!

Thank you to @risca1967 for helping make this event possible!
Whether you're a mom, or appreciate a mom in your life, we want to see you at a film screening of No Country for Mothers on October 22 at 6 PM!

Roger Williams Park Conservancy is hosting a screening of this impactful documentary created by @momsfirstus about what motherhood looks like in America today, at the @rwpbotanicalcenter. 

Joining us for the screening and a Q&A panel after the film are representatives from local organizations @collectiveactionri, @rikidscount, and @unitedwayri. This open dialogue and opportunity for resource-sharing is designed to embody the film's premise: that motherhood in America is not a private struggle but a collective one. 

This event is free and open to the public! Learn more and RSVP online (link in bio): https://www.rwpconservancy.org/event/film-screening-of-no-country-for-mothers/
