DESCRIPTION:The Art of Social Activism: Film Screening and Panel Discussion\n\nSunday\, May 7 beginning at 2:00 p.m.\n\nFitchburg Art Museum\, 185 Elm Street in Fitchburg\, MA\n\n \n\nThis program is part of Fitchburg Art Museum's Paper Town exhibition which pays tribute to the city's history of paper production\, taking paper out of the two-dimensional into a world that is fantastical\, intricate\, colorful\, and personal. Inspired by the materiality of paper and the metamorphic quality of the papermaking process\, Paper Town explores paper in pulp\, cast\, folded\, and cut forms.
