MATV, in collaboration with the Malden Public Library, will hold an encore screening of the half-hour video Turn the Page: Dina Malgeri and the Malden Public Library on Wednesday, October 8 at 7:00 p.m. The screening will be held at the Malden Public Library in the Maccario Room.
The video features an interview with former Library Director Dina Malgeri, who retired in 2013 after a 40-year tenure. She shares the library’s fascinating history, details about its unique architecture and stories about many key pieces in its art collection. The video incorporates archival photos, news clippings, and video footage to bring the narrative alive. The result is a story, rich with visual details, that honors the treasure that is Malden’s Converse Memorial Library, and a fitting recognition of Dina Malgeri, who played a major role in its historic preservation.
Doors open at 6:30 p.m. Light refreshments will be served in the Lower and Carr Galleries following the screening. There will be opportunity for audience feedback and discussion.
This video was produced by Anne D’Urso-Rose & Ron Cox. Edited by Brent Robie.
