The Top 25 Film Scores of All Time<\/span> with Emanuel Abramovitz<\/p>\n

6 Sessions starting Tuesday, July 11, 10:00Am-11:30AM on Zoom<\/span><\/p>\n

The American Film Institute released a list of the best film scores that includes many well-known classics and some surprises. These lists are always arguable, but the composers of those scores have something in common: a fascinating life and a solid career. With plenty of audiovisuals, anecdotes, and humor, let\u2019s enjoy the ride through the process of creating those historical pieces that convey what the movie is trying to say without words and evoke an emotional response even the most brilliant bit of dialogue cannot.<\/p>\n

Local Farm to Food Assistance with Hope\u2019s Harvest<\/span> with Shannon Hickey
\n1 Session on Tuesday, July 11, at 5:00PM<\/p>\n

Join the Hope’s Harvest program of Farm Fresh Rhode Island in the field to learn about how local farms and food producers contribute to addressing food insecurity in Rhode Island via gleaning, contracting, and surplus purchasing. Students will receive a basic overview of food waste, hunger and malnutrition in RI, and practical strategies for engaging and effecting these issues. Then you’ll put your knowledge into gear by helping to harvest and pack kale and collard greens to be distributed to local hunger relief agencies within RI. The Hope’s Harvest team will provide clear harvesting instructions and oversight.   <\/p>\n

Hope\u2019s Harvest started in 2018 as Rhode Island\u2019s first gleaning project. Since then, the program has grown to include not only farm-based food recovery but also expanding markets for local growers via the emergency food system. As of 2022, Hope\u2019s Harvest is proud to be a program of Farm Fresh RI \u2014 bringing fresh, nutritious, locally grown produce to neighbors in need.<\/p>\n
