The Divides Project: Bridging Divides over Pizza & Conversation
About this Event
About This Event
What causes people to feel disconnected from one another? Why do social and political divides seem so difficult to overcome? And what can ordinary people do to build stronger connections in their communities?
The Divides Project invites you to an evening of thoughtful conversation, shared food & drink, and community-building at Idle Hands Craft Ales in Malden.
In a time when division often dominates headlines and social media feeds, this event offers something different: an opportunity to sit down with neighbors, listen to diverse perspectives, and explore practical ways to strengthen understanding across differences.
Together, we'll examine some of the forces that contribute to division while also highlighting the relationships, conversations, and creative approaches that can help bring people together.
No special expertise is required—just curiosity, respect for others, and a willingness to participate.
RSVP to attend. And if you like pizza, you can preorder it here.
- Founded by Christopher and Grace Tkach, Idle Hands started out in 2010 as the smallest commercial brewery in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, producing 1.5 barrels of beer at a time. Aside from great bear, this wonderful community treasure is so much more than a brewery. They are all about community. And so you will find all kinds of events, fundraisers, and ways to engage with your neighgber in this funky tap room on Commercial Street.
