Friday Music: 1630 Band
This summer we have been enjoying Friday evenings on the lawn off Church Street at First Parish Dorchester, with the 1630 Band and movies on alternate Fridays.
Friday, September 25, 6 pm
JBlues, soul, gospel, and rock will fill the late summer evening on the lawn with so much Dorchester talent strutting their stuff.
Since August 7, we have been writing letters to be sent to North Carolina voters in support of Vote Forward. Come early to join that effort or to pick up letters to address at home.
Masks and physical distancing, please! Bring your own chair or blanket if you can, and your own snacks or drinks. The building will be open only for bathroom use.

This week’s red carpet special: The movie of Lin-Manuel Miranda’s famed musical Hamilton. Hip hop, R&B, soul, pop, and show tunes meet Hamilton, Washington, Adams, and the whole founding gang. “In the end, Miranda’s impassioned narrative of one man’s story becomes the collective narrative of a nation, a nation built by immigrants who occasionally need to be reminded where they came from” Marilyn Stasio, Variety
Wear a sweater. Masks and physical distancing, please! Bring your own chair or blanket if you can, and your own snacks or drinks. The building will be open only for bathroom use.
Other movies we have seen include “I Am Not Your Negro”, a 2016 documentary film directed by Raoul Peck, based on James Baldwin’s unfinished manuscript Remember This House and “13th” a history of slavery and its aftermath in the U.S.
