Register Now THE WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS HEALTH EQUITY NETWORK PRESENTS MOSAIC: FILM, CONVERSATION AND COMMUNITYThursday, May 5th at 6 pm More Here FREE, Registration required The Western Massachusetts Health Equity Network in conjunction with Multicultural BRIDGE presents an evening of cultural exploration, performance, and intergenerational conversation centered on the screening of the new Western MA film, Mosaic, a film that the Network commissioned to highlight the transformational work of local leaders of color and other voices from the Connecticut River Valley to the Berkshires. A regional group of young and old helped create the content and guide the process of the film’s focus on the intersection of racism and health. What would a world without racism look like? What would it be like if quality healthcare were accessible to all? How can we embrace and support wellbeing in all its manifestations? What could healthy communities look like…and accomplish? Join as these questions and more are explored in an open, supportive, creative environment.

Food sovereignty and sustainability has always been a part of BRIDGE’s programming! Starting 10 years ago, BRIDGE has had a long-term partnership with Gideons Garden (stewarded by Grace Episcopal Church at Taft Farms) for our Happiness Toolbox summer programming for youth. Over the years, Happiness Toolbox youth participants have participated in a summer Seed to Harvest planting ceremonies in the Spring and harvesting for their families, and visiting the farm. Taft Farms with Gideons Garden have also provided healthy snacks for Happiness Toolbox for a decade along with their harvests. Our Women to Women participants and their children enjoy nutritious meals twice a month for 10+ years uninterrupted. Donate to Support the program!
