Join or Die Screening
Saturday, May 2, 2026
3:00 - 5:30 PM
West Newton Cinema
The Boston Club is excited to participate in a community event with the West Newton Cinema on Saturday, May 2, from 3 - 5:30 pm. We’ll begin with a screening of the documentary Join or Die, followed by a Community Club Fair.
Join or Die follows social scientist Robert Putnam (Bowling Alone) as he explores the decades-long decline in American civic life - from bowling leagues to neighborhood groups - and makes a compelling case that joining clubs and community organizations is essential to a healthy, vibrant democracy.
The solution is within reach: get involved! After the film, connect with local clubs and organizations, including Green Newton, Newton Free Library, Ty Burr's Movie Club, The Highland Glee Club, Newton Camera Club, LGBTQ Newton, Newton Lions Club, Newton Women's Forum, Rock Voices, The Cooper Center, and more.
The cost to attend is $20, and you can purchase your tickets through the West Newton Cinema by clicking here.
