The Day - Mystic-based group has made $200,000 in donations to help local organizations

Mystic  A local grassroots group, whose 117 members meet quarterly to pool their $100 contributions, has now awarded almost $200,000 to area organizations. Power of Together 2, which formed in 2016 as an offshoot of a similar East-Lyme based group, made its latest donation $10,700 to FRESH New London last Friday. Gae Melford, one of the group s organizers and co-founders, said that while people may donate $50 or $100 on their own to a local organization, they can have a larger impact if they pool their donations. It s exciting that you can raise $11,000 in an hour, she said, referring to the length of the group s quarterly meetings, which have been held virtually since last spring. 

The Day - New season for the Rev Florence Clarke - News from southeastern Connecticut

Published February 21. 2021 12:01AM  By Lisa McGinley I wish you could hear the Rev. Florence Clarke preach. She intones. I wish you could see her, tall and imposing in her clerical robes, but not prideful. Humble. She doesn t waste your time or attention; she composes her sermons with a journalist s economy of words and a dramatist s flair for the surprise turn of a thought. Why say elephant when you can say ant ? is a maxim with her. Florence Clarke turns 80 today. It is a joyous day for a woman who grew up in Klan territory in South Carolina and joined the Jim Crow protests of the Civil Rights Movement. She has lived long enough and made enough of an impact to see the change and be the change. She is still preaching because she has a lot left to say. She did not always say it aloud.

The Arts from Afar: Pandemic inspired innovation in the arts world in 2020

The pandemic turned everything upside down in 2020, including some of the things we usually rely on to help us through dark times — like the arts. When it became clear that the novel coronavirus was going to stick around for a while, arts leaders from Westerly to Mystic to Providence and in between began to look anew at the programs they had planned to present in 2020, most of which were canceled when pandemic protocols forced limits on large indoor gatherings. Groups like the Chorus of Westerly, the United Theatre, the La Grua Center, the Granite Theatre, the Arts Café Mystic, Trinity Rep and the Gamm experimented with new ways to reach their audiences. They partnered with other organizations, and they turned to Zoom and YouTube and Soundscape and the great outdoors as they wrestled with how best to entertain and inspire their weary supporters starved for music, theatre, film and fun. Some jumped online and others used videography to livestream or record shows and pe
