The Jewish Federation of the Berkshires' Connecting with Community presents "Pittsfield - A City on the Move" with Mayor Linda M. Tyer.

"The City of Pittsfield has evolved.  That's a good thing" per Mayor Tyer whose vision for Pittsfield reflects a place where small businesses thrive, strategic collaborations are nurtured, and the creative economy flourishes.  She is committed to the work ahead.  Tyer was inaugurated as Mayor in January, 2016 and is the first mayor to be elected to a four year term in the city's history.  Her depth of understanding comes from her cumulative experience in law firms, school systems, and city government.

This free program is part of the Federation’s Connecting With Community Series and will be followed by a kosher hot lunch. Lunch is a $2 suggested donation for adults over 60 years of age or $7 for all others. Advance reservations are required for lunch and can be made by calling (413) 442-2200 before 9 a.m. on the day of the program.
