A Community Gathering for Justice and Peace

Green Newton and the First Unitarian Universalist Society in Newton are sponsoring this afternoon event which will showcase the work of the Youth Climate Solutions Team at Newton North High School. The students have a goal of encouraging 100 families in Newton to sign up for MassSave Home Energy audits. The afternoon will start at 2pm with a sing-along in the Parish Hall led by Newton Folk Music. At 3pm, the group will move to the sanctuary where the program will include remarks by the Newton North students, an address by keynote speaker Tinya Seeger (daughter of folk-singer Pete Seeger), and a performance by the What the World Needs Now Interfaith Coalition Singers. Following the program there will be a reception in the Parish Hall with refreshments and an opportunity for audience members to interact with the students and sign up for MassSave energy audits. Visitors can also make a freewill donation to benefit 501(c)(3) Democracy Forward.
