Description
Green Wood Coalition presents an online, three-part film series that includes live discussions and music performances. This series of thought-provoking events invites us all to move forward, re-imagining a different kind of society. The films, Us & Them, Conviction and PUSH will confront the issues of homelessness, poverty, substance dependency and mental health as calls to action. This free event is made possible by Northumberland United Way, sponsor of Green Wood’s speaker series, Community 101 and IMAGINATE Conference.

Martyn Joseph is a completely unique and mind blowing artist. Take everything you think you know about singer songwriters….and rip it up. For one man and a guitar he creates a performance with a huge far-reaching sound that is energetic, compelling and passionate.
He is gifted with the rare ability to speak to the soul with his expressive and poignant lyrics and has a career spanning 30 years, 32 albums and thousands of live performances. A unique talent driven by passion, social awareness and love for his trade.
Compared to Bruce Springsteen, John Mayer, Bruce Cockburn and Dave Matthews, he has created his own style and reputation as a mesmerizing live performer and stands in his own right, built on a reputation for giving what thousands have described as the best live music experience of their lives.
