Greetings!
We've enjoyed a summer filled with great outdoor activities, from our 4th of July Parade, concert, and fireworks to our Food Truck Festivals and the fantastic House Music Festival. However, just because the air has chilled and we must move inside doesn't mean we're finished.
We have a great line-up of events for fall leading right into our holiday season. The city that plays together grows together and stays together. I want to see everyone in Plainfield come out and enjoy these programs curated specially for our community.
This newsletter shares upcoming events and exciting programs in the city of Plainfield. Use it as your guide to help you navigate and plan your weekly schedule. Come out, join the Queen City in its adventures, and let's grow our community and strengthen our camaraderie.

Greetings!
Hemos disfrutado de un verano lleno de excelentes actividades al aire libre, desde nuestro desfile, concierto y fuegos artificiales del 4 de julio hasta nuestros festivales de camiones de comida y el fantástico Festival de Música House. Sin embargo, el hecho de que el aire se haya enfriado y debamos entrar no significa que hayamos terminado.
Tenemos una gran lista de eventos para el otoño que conducen directamente a nuestra temporada navideña. La ciudad que juega unida crece unida y permanece unida. Quiero ver a todos en Plainfield salir y disfrutar de estos programas seleccionados especialmente para nuestra comunidad.
Este boletín informativo comparte los próximos eventos y emocionantes programas en la ciudad de Plainfield. Úselo como su guía para ayudarlo a navegar y planificar su horario semanal. Sal, únete a la Ciudad Reina en sus aventuras y hagamos crecer nuestra comunidad y fortalezcamos nuestra amistad.

RECAP - 5th Annual Queen City Film Festival
Friday, October 21, 2022
|
|
Did you know that although most people think Hollywood is the motion picture capital of the world, New Jersey was the real birthplace of the modern film industry. Motion pictures were invented and first produced at Thomas Edison’s laboratory and studio in West Orange. Fort Lee (just across from New York City) became a key site for early film production. (SOURCE)
This past Friday, October 21, the Queen City Film Festival under the direction of Lamar Mackson, kicked off its fifth annual event at the Plainfield Performing Arts Center. This event highlighted black and brown film makers and provided an avenue for their talents to be showcased.
The Festival Ambassador Alrick Brown is a Plainfielder who found his medium in film after visiting the slave castle of Elmina, in Ghana, during a two-year tour with the Peace Corps in Cote d'Ivoire. The interactions with the people of his village, and his overall experiences in West Africa, informed his creative expression. (SOURCE)
The City of Plainfield through the “Love Plainfield Initiative” was an event sponsor and Mayor Adrian O. Mapp thanked Lamar and his team for the work they do in promoting not only the film industry but the City of Plainfield as well. He further said that Lamar's vision complements the one that his administration has for the Queen City and it begins with the Plainfield Performing Arts Center. The vision is for Plainfield to be a mecca for arts, film, music and culture.
Members of the governing body in attendance were Council President Barry Goode, Council Vice President Charles McRae, Councilwoman Ashley Davis, Councilwoman Joylette Mills-Ransome, Councilwoman Terri Briggs-Jones and Councilman Steve Hockaday. Assemblywoman Linda Carter and Union County Chair Rebecca Williams also attended. All attending elected officials indicated the significance of these types of events and what they mean to our City.
This event allows our future generations of Plainfielders to dream and realize that they too can follow their hearts and make their dreams come true… even if it includes making movies. This is the importance of representation. We look forward to next year's event!

What Is The Love Plainfield Campaign?
|
The Love Plainfield campaign launched on March 9, 2021. It's an initiative focused on fostering a spirit of love, pride, and unity in the City of Plainfield while encouraging residents to work together to celebrate and promote the Queen City's rich history and vibrant culture. (La campaña Love Plainfield se lanzó el 9 de marzo de 2021. Es una iniciativa enfocada en fomentar un espíritu de amor, orgullo y unidad en la Ciudad de Plainfield, al tiempo que alienta a los residentes a trabajar juntos para celebrar y promover la rica historia y la vibrante cultura de queen City.)
What defines a place is its people, and our people are diverse and unique. Our residents are the best resource that Plainfield has, and it's up to us as "One Plainfield" family to showcase our Plainfield Pride and show our Love for this city we call home. (Lo que define a un lugar es su gente, y nuestra gente es diversa y única. Nuestros residentes son el mejor recurso que tiene Plainfield, y depende de nosotros como familia "One Plainfield" mostrar nuestro Orgullo de Plainfield y mostrar nuestro amor por esta ciudad que llamamos hogar.)

Look for the QR codes on trashcans around the city, in city businesses, on garbage trucks, etc.
These barcodes will serve as an opportunity for Plainfield residents to share how they show love around our city. The Love Plainfield team will also use it to log resident participation for #LovePlainfield awards.
