Grant from the Expand Mass Stories initiative from Mass Humanities

Julie Dobrow, Jennifer Burton and the Robbins House Museum are pleased to announce they have received a $10,000 grant from the Expand Mass Stories initiative from Mass Humanities. Mass Humanities announced grants to 42 cultural non-profits for projects that include exhibits, documentary films, oral histories, and public events. Totaling $751,424, the grants will help reimagine the story of Massachusetts.

These funds will support the new Half the History film, "Ellen Garrison: Scenes from the Life of an Activist." Production on this film begins Indigenous People's weekend, shooting on location in Concord, MA. Jennifer's Producing for Film class, along with many other FMS students, are working on the film.
