SUMMARY:Virtual Author Talk: Paul Vigna
DESCRIPTION:How Money Became God: Rethinking Wealth and Greed in Modern Society with Paul Vigna\nREGISTER & SUBMIT QUESTIONS HERE \nvia Digital Livestream or on-demand \nJoin us for an eye-opening conversation with veteran journalist Paul Vigna as we examine his provocative book\, The Almightier: How Money Became God\, Greed Became Virtue\, and Debt Became Sin\, in which he explores the question: how did money go from a tool of commerce into the dominant faith of modern society? \nIn The Almightier\, Vigna takes readers on a sweeping historical journey from Renaissance Florence to today’s global financial markets\, revealing how wealth accumulation evolved from a moral failing into an unspoken civic virtue. He uncovers the forgotten history of money\, tracing the uneasy and often accidental alliance between wealth and religion as it developed from ancient city-states to today’s secular world\, where religious devotion has receded and greed has stepped in to fill the void. \nThrough engaging anecdotes\, original research\, and fresh perspectives on the causes of the many challenges we face today\, Vigna makes a compelling argument that money has no power apart from the power we give it. \nWhether you are interested in economic history\, personal finance\, or the hidden cultural forces shaping modern life\, this talk is sure to pique your interest. \nRegister today to learn more about how devotion to money has replaced religion as the foundation of our society.

SUMMARY:Norman Rockwell: Inclusion\, Exclusion and Representing America (ZOOM)
DESCRIPTION:Norman Rockwell: Inclusion\, Exclusion and Representing America (ZOOM)\nThursday\, November 12\, from 6:00 – 7:00 pm \nRegistration Required. This virtual program will take place on Zoom. Register HERE to receive the meeting link via email. \nThe Roxbury\, Bridgewater\, and Washington libraries are proud to continue their collaborative programming and bring enriching cultural experiences to the community. The upcoming virtual program\, Norman Rockwell: Inclusion\, Exclusion and Representing America is presented by Jane Oneail. \nThe program explores the work of one of America’s most beloved illustrators through a contemporary lens. Norman Rockwell is celebrated for depicting and defining American life\, creating memorable images that captured universal experiences of joy\, belonging\, loneliness\, and resilience. His paintings often portray the bittersweet emotions of people feeling left out or left behind—experiences that continue to resonate with audiences today. \nAt the same time\, Rockwell’s work raises important questions about representation. Although he chronicled American life throughout much of the 20th century\, his illustrations largely omitted the nation’s cultural and racial diversity. It was only later in his career that Rockwell created several powerful paintings addressing race in America. These works can be understood as a natural extension of his lifelong interest in themes of inclusion\, exclusion\, and the human experience. \nDuring this presentation\, Oneail will examine Rockwell’s artistic legacy\, tracing the evolution of his work and inviting participants to consider how his paintings both reflected and shaped ideas of America. Through art\, history\, and discussion\, attendees will gain new perspectives on one of the country’s most iconic artists. \nAbout the presenter: \nJane Oneail is the founder of Culturally Curious\, a company that curates and presents art appreciation programs. Jane holds a master’s in Art History from Boston University and a master’s in Education from Harvard University. Born and raised in NH\, she has worked at some of the state’s most esteemed cultural institutions\, including the League of New Hampshire Craftsmen\, where she served as Executive Director\, and the Currier Museum of Art\, where she held the role of Senior Educator. Jane has also taught at the college level for more than a decade\, most recently at Southern New Hampshire University. \n

SUMMARY:Artist Reception & Poetry Reading: Desirée Alvarez
DESCRIPTION:November Artist: Desirée Alvarez\nNovember 3 – 28 during library hours \nReception & Poetry Reading: Saturday\, November 14\, 4:00 – 6:00 pm. Open to all. \nBurnham Library will host an exhibition of paintings by poet and painter Desirée Alvarez from November 3 through November 28\, 2026\, during library hours. A reception and poetry reading will take place Saturday\, November 14\, from 4 to 6 p.m. where Alvarez will read selections from her new poetry collection\, Oyster Saloon. \nA fourth-generation Bridgewater resident who spent her childhood in town\, Alvarez draws inspiration from the landscape she knows so well. Her paintings are inspired by living with nature and gardening in Bridgewater\, exploring an ecstatic relationship with the outdoors and the secret connections between humans\, animals\, and plants. Her new collection\, Oyster Saloon\, is also deeply rooted in the landscape of her childhood. \nAlvarez is the author of three poetry collections: Devil’s Paintbrush\, winner of the May Sarton New Hampshire Poetry Award; Raft of Flame\, winner of Omnidawn’s Lake Merritt Poetry Award; and Oyster Saloon. Her poetry and visual art have received support from the New York Foundation for the Arts\, Foundation for Contemporary Arts\, American Academy of Arts and Letters\, and Poets House. Her work has appeared in numerous publications\, including Poetry Magazine\, The Massachusetts Review\, Ecotone\, and LitHub. She exhibits her paintings nationally and internationally\, teaches at The Juilliard School and the City University of New York\, and currently has poetry\, paintings\, and drawings featured at Kentler International Drawing Space in New York City. \nThe exhibition offers the community an opportunity to experience Alvarez’s visual art and celebrate the landscape and local connections that continue to inform her creative work. The November 14 reception and reading will provide a chance to meet the artist and hear poetry from her latest collection. \nThe reception & poetry reading are free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Virtual Author Talk: Rebecca Roanhorse
DESCRIPTION:Epic Worlds and Celestial Prophecies: Exploring the Between Earth and Sky Trilogy with Rebecca Roanhorse\nREGISTER & SUBMIT QUESTIONS HERE \nvia Digital Livestream or on-demand \nStep into a sprawling world of celestial magic\, political intrigue\, and ancient prophecies with New York Times bestselling author Rebecca Roanhorse as we dive deep into her acclaimed Between Earth and Sky trilogy. Black Sun\, Fevered Star\, and Mirrored Heavens are inspired by the rich and diverse cultures of the pre-Columbian Americas\, reshaping modern speculative fiction with unmissable worldbuilding. \nBlack Sun\, the first book in the trilogy\, introduces us to the holy city of Tova. The winter solstice is usually a time for celebration and renewal\, but this year it coincides with a solar eclipse\, a rare celestial event proscribed by the Sun Priest as an unbalancing of the world. \nMeanwhile\, a ship launches from a distant city bound for Tova and set to arrive on the solstice. The captain of the ship\, Xiala\, is a disgraced Teek whose song can calm the waters around her as easily as it can warp a man’s mind. Her ship carries one passenger. Described as harmless\, the passenger\, Serapio\, is a young man\, blind\, scarred\, and cloaked in destiny. As Xiala well knows\, when a man is described as harmless\, he usually ends up being a villain. \nWhether you are a longtime fan of the trilogy or searching for your next immersive fantasy read\, this is an event you won’t want to miss out on. \nRegister today to go behind the scenes with one of speculative fiction’s most exciting voices! \n
