SUMMARY:Mill Talk: Yankees\, immigrants\, and the path to political power—The mill towns of Dedham and Waltham
DESCRIPTION:Many of New England’s early mill villages\, such as Lowell and Lawrence\, were planned as new\, purpose-built industrial sites in isolated locations with little or no existing settlement. In contrast\, the mill district in Dedham flourished within the boundaries of an old Yankee town with a well-established regional identity. This talk will explore tensions between the native-born residents of Dedham and the working-class neighborhood that developed around the mills\, where the largely immigrant population differed in language\, religion and traditional customs. Although such tensions appeared in Waltham as well\, for various reasons\, immigrants achieved local political influence much more quickly in Waltham than in Dedham. \nPresented by Judy Neiswander\, author of “Mother Brook and the Mills of East Dedham.” \nFree to the public\, but registration required.

SUMMARY:'Elaborate Procedures' — An evening of films and poems by Derek Jenkins & Eugenia Zuroski
DESCRIPTION:AgX is pleased to present “Elaborate Procedures\,” an evening of films and poems by Hamilton\, Ontario-based artists Derek Jenkins and Eugenia Zuroski. \nThrough simple procedures – observing\, writing\, filming – both artists open up unexpected ways of relating to the world. Rather than treating the camera as a tool for documentation\, Jenkins approaches filmmaking as a relational practice\, using flowers\, landscapes\, and shared acts of image-making to foster connections between people. Zuroski’s poems likewise begin with close observation\, weaving the natural world and everyday life into incisive reflections on language\, history\, and the systemic structures that shape our experience. Together\, their works create a thoughtful dialogue on how we inhabit\, perceive\, and remember the world around us. \nThe screening will be followed by an in-person conversation with Jenkins and Zuroski. Programmed and moderated by AgX member Lilan Yang. \nThis screening is free with a suggested donation of $5 – $20.

SUMMARY:Blue Collar 101: Commercial fishing and the maritime trades
DESCRIPTION:What actually happens to keep our coastal waters\, working waterfronts\, and marine supply chains running every single day? Who navigates the commercial fishing vessels\, maintains our complex marine infrastructure\, builds our heavy waterfront structures\, and trains the next generation of maritime leaders? \n\n\nFor the fourth session of Blue Collar 101\, we’re bringing together workers and industry experts from across the Commonwealth’s commercial fishing and maritime sector. Representatives from the commercial fishing industry\, maritime higher education\, marine trade associations\, and heavy marine construction will walk us through what the job actually looks like: the operational mechanics\, the rigorous safety protocols\, the seasonal demands\, and the career pathways into this vital ocean workforce. \nThis is a panel conversation for the general public and those curious about the skilled labor that keeps our coastal infrastructure functioning. \nFree and open to the public but registration is recommended. Doors open at 6:30.
