Submit your event/s here. Note that we limit event listings mainly to free or inexpensive public events in Wellesley, such as talks, films, theatre productions, concerts, etc. This is not a place for businesses to promote themselves, their classes, etc. Please don’t submit events that run for weeks and weeks. We approve event listings before they go live, typically within 24 hours.
No business sales, trunk shows, etc. (those would be paid advertisements). Please go easy on the ALL CAPS, exclamation points!!!!, etc.
We also appreciate any contributions to support our independent journalism venture.
Thanks, Deborah & Bob

Film screening: “The Right to Read”
March 7 @ 6:30 pm - 9:30 pm
There will be a public film screening of The Right to Read on Thursday, March 7, 6:30pm-9:30pm, at the Wellesley Free Library, 530 Washington St.
The film is directed by Jenny Mackenzie and produced by Levar Burton, known for his iconic role in Reading Rainbow. The film follows an NAACP activist, an educator, and two American families as they navigate the challenges and triumphs in their quest to secure the most crucial foundation of lifelong success for our youth: the gift of reading.
The event will also serve as a treasure trove of resources for parents of early and hesitant readers alike, offering an array of materials on effective reading programs and engaging books.
The screening is presented in partnership with The Wellesley Free Library and WPS Parents Coalition, an independent group that is unaffiliated with the Wellesley Public Schools.
