The event will feature a full screening of the film followed by a panel discussion. The art-filled documentary goes behind the scenes at Tapestry’s syringe service programs to look at the very misunderstood world of people who use drugs. Follow Tapestry’s Harm Reductionists around Western Massachusetts as they provide critical public health interventions and combat the stigma surrounding drug use by creating a mural inspiring hope. “People tend to hate the individual and not the addiction. This is something at Tapestry we try to clarify for people - it’s okay to hate the addiction, but don’t hate the individual. This is why we try to show all this love and compassion” - Victor Colón, Tapestry Syringe Access Program Manager. Light refreshments will be served at the Palmer Public Library.
