The latest pre-screening segment of Slatersville: America’s First Mill Village will be held on Sunday, Feb. 7 at 1 p.m. as part of the Museum of Work and Culture’s Virtual Valley Talks series.
Valley Talks are biweekly historical lectures offered by the museum free of charge. Slatersville is a historical documentary series by critically acclaimed filmmaker Christian de Rezendes, and the event will feature its sixth work-in-progress piece, “Henry Plimpton Kendall: They Will All Be My Friends.” The segment will focus on Kendall, who purchased the Slatersville mill and village in 1915 and brought it from a state of low morale to a New England renaissance.
The full series is scheduled to have its world premiere on Rhode Island PBS in the fall of this year.
Register to attend the event via Zoom here.
