Mosaic (2022) captures the stories of people of color across Western Massachusetts leading the way toward healthier communities and advocating for a better world. Commissioned by the Western Mass Health Equity Network and created by young local filmmaker Michelle Falcón Fontánez.

Following the downtown Northampton debut of Mosaic will be a panel of community leaders–some featured in the film and all to expand the conversation around what public health equity, justice, representation, and transformation has and can look like in our communities. Also hear updates about the Department of Community Care (DCC) and Community Resilience Hub projects.

ALSO, come early for Resilience Hub + Community Meal in the Park (4:00-6:00pm): Before the Academy of Music event, join representatives from Community Action, Tapestry Health, Hampshire HOPE, the Department of Health and Human Services for resources, Covid tests, harm reduction information, free Narcan and more. Dinner courtesy of Manna Community Kitchen (first come, first served) at 6:00pm
