PITTSFIELD, Mass. — The Pittsfield Community Design Center will host the debut film screening of the documentary "The Street Project" (2022) on Thursday, Dec. 29 at the Berkshire Athenaeum.

 

The free 60-minute screening will begin at 5:30 p.m. in the library's auditorium. The film commemorates the formation of the Design Center, a new group in the Berkshires advocating for pedestrians and cyclists.

 

Created by the multiple Emmy-winning team at Boyd Productions, The Street Project takes viewers across the globe in an  narrative, from cycling-friendly meccas in Europe, to New York City and Phoenix—one of the most dangerous cities in America for pedestrians—for a deep dive into how America views our streets and how they can be made safer.

 

A question and answer session will follow the screening. Pizza and snacks will be provided.
