C1’s Better Future Series is a multi-part digital gathering bringing together Boston’s artists, community leaders, and policymakers to understand the needs of our neighborhoods and reimagine the future of our city, both in response to the current pandemic and our ongoing fight against the deep-rooted culture of white supremacy.

Broadcast live on C1’s Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube, each monthly episode will focus on one of Boston’s neighborhoods, highlight the issues that matter most to its residents, and amplify opportunities for viewers to make a difference.

Each episode will be anchored by an organization that is making an impact in that community, a policymaker with a focus on that community, and an artist whose work intersects with that community.

In conjunction with this series, Company One Theatre will also be donating to social justice-driven organizations working toward the community concerns discussed in each episode.
