COMMUNITY UPDATES

The events listed below are not sponsored by Blackstone Library.

Have you ever dreamed of being on TV? Or wondered what goes on at a TV studio? Then stop by Branford Community Television’s Open House on Wednesday, 2/15 between 5 and 7pm!

Explore the newly renovated studio, check out our state-of-the-art equipment, and learn all about what BCTV has to offer. Studio is located at 40 Kirkham Street in Branford. Refreshments provided.

When it comes to local government, there is nothing more important than having a seat at the table. CCM is partnering once again with the Campaign School at Yale University to invite Connecticut’s communities of color to learn about the important opportunities that await when you decide to run for office or serve on a board or commission.

Join us virtually on February 25 and March 4 by registering here.
