SUMMARY:Subscription Series: "The American Dream and the Movies" With Professor Julie Levinson
DESCRIPTION:Throughout the past century\, Hollywood movies have been a major force in embedding the notion of the American dream in our individual aspirations\, our public discourse\, and our collective consciousness. They have offered varied perspectives on this very essence of our national self-image—sometimes extolling and sometimes challenging the premises and promises of the dream. This film series will showcase a range of movies that explore both the hopes and betrayals of the American dream. Screenings will take place once a month on Thursdays at 4:00PM. Each film will be preceded by a brief introduction and will be followed by audience discussion. \nSchedule: 8 films\, presented once monthly on Thursdays at 4:00 PM.

SUMMARY:Music Mondays presents Aryaloka String Quartet "Cycles of Stillness and Change"
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to welcome the Aryaloka String Quartet (Mark Latham and Beth Welty\, violins\, Noralee Walker\, viola\, Sandi-Jo Malmon\, cello) back to Music Mondays to perform a thoughtful new program of string quartet music by the early 20th century French composer Maurice Ravel and three living composers: Arvo Pärt\, Caroline Shaw\, and Philip Glass. Their program will consist of “Summa” by Pärt\, “Entr’acte” by Shaw\, three movements from “Mishima” by Glass\, and the first two movements of Ravel’s only string quartet. These four pieces may seem wildly different and yet they are united in their exploration of tone\, color\, sensuality\, repeated motives\, stillness and energy. \nPlease join us in person at the Scandinavian Center\, 206 Waltham Street\, Newton\, or on Zoom at:\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/81963239351…\nMeeting ID: 819 6323 9351\nPasscode: mm2026 \nAs usual\, admission is free\, but donations are appreciated\, all of which will go directly to the musicians. We accept donations by cash or check to Music Mondays Inc. (at the concert or by mail– email musicmondaysnewton@gmail.com for mailing address)\, Venmo @Music-Mondays\, or Zelle to musicmondaysnewton@gmail.com. \nWe are grateful to the Newton Cultural Council\, a local council of the Massachusetts Cultural Council\, as well as Village Bank of Newton\, for their continued support\, without which we would not be able to present this concert.
