Kent and Caryn Hesse have two signs on the front porch of their Northampton home: Black Lives Matter and the Northampton Police Department also has their support. They talk about the decision to show support to both the movement and the city’s police.
Cultural commentator Waleska Santiago makes a case for not looking at labels when you go to an exhibit, but instead look at the art and have your own reaction without being influenced by the title of the work nor how the curator wants you to experience the journey.

Smith College is sponsiring, the Academy of Music is showing, some terrific films Sept. 16-18. More info here: http://www.aomtheatre.com/event/outfest-on-the-road-presented-by-smith-college/
