Together We Rise

Reimagining Public Safety in Lexington

Fri. 5/6 @ 7-8:30pm

莱镇急需要重建一个警察局或者说公共安全设施，这需要花费好几百万美元，但一旦建成可以用上好几十年。因此， “Together We Rise”希望对这个设施的设计尽可能具有前瞻性。让社区提供更多关于公设施操作程序、模式的建议应该会对重建有帮助。“Together We Rise”特此召开讨论会，希望能达成以下几个目的：

为重新构建莱镇的公共安全具有前瞻性的模式提供国家和地区层面的背景材料。
分享Brookline在这方面的经验；并且可以提问。
邀请社区领袖和镇政府官员们谈谈怎样把所有这些建议融合到新警察局或者说公共安全设施的设计中去。

Munroe Center for the Arts

A Revolutionary Encounter in London - An Online Play Reading

Saturday, May 8th@7:30-8:45pm

“革命者偶遇在伦敦”是Debbie Wiess的独幕剧，描述的是殖民时期的两个美国人令人震惊又不为人所知的一次见面。

Debbie Wiess的剧本“革命者相遇在伦敦”是一个75分钟长的独幕剧，剧中共有3个角色，描写的身为奴隶的非裔美国诗人Phillis Wheatley和美国开国元勋本杰明.富兰克林之间不太为人所知的一次见面。这是他们之间的第一次也是唯一的一次见面。见面发生在1773年的伦敦。

关于这次见面的报道很少，有关富兰克林的生平传记大多都没有提到这件事。他们两人也只是在和各自的家人朋友的几封信中略有提到他们的见面。作者做了深入细致的研究，希望能够让每个角色能够血肉丰满，同时想像这两位美国早期时代的伟人相互之间会谈些什么，当然有一点可以肯定的是这次见面是热情友好的。尽管这两人应该是两个极端，他们身上其实有很多共同点，同时他们有不少相同的兴趣爱好。他们都是那个时代的名人。

作者很荣幸能在她的家乡莱镇的Munroe艺术中心首次完整地呈献这部剧，没有改动没有删减。她的早期手稿的浓缩版曾在2020年二月的波士顿雅典娜演出过，后期手稿的前半部分也在2020年九月由Moving Parts Paris通过zoom演出过。

请一定要来参加这个令人惊叹的夜晚！

Together We Rise

Reimagining Public Safety in Lexington

Fri. 5/6 @ 7-8:30pm

The Town of Lexington needs a new police station or public safety facility. A new facility will cost many millions of dollars and serve as our public safety infrastructure for several decades. Therefore, Together We Rise would like the process of envisioning this facility to be as forward-looking as possible. To provide meaningful input, we believe it will be helpful for the community to have more information about public safety processes, topics, and models to consider.

Together We Rise is holding this forum to:

1. Provide national and local context for reimagining a forward-looking model of public safety in Lexington.

2. Share Brookline's experience in soliciting community input and updating their model of public safety; a Q&A time will follow.

3. Ask community leaders and town officials to reflect on how all of this might feed into the design of a new Lexington police station or integrated public safety facility (up to 2 minutes each)
