Filmmaker and drone photographer David Lawlor will offer a screening of his 30-minute documentary on the history of the Ann & Hope mill building in Cumberland.  The original Ann & Hope was a merchant ship, but over time, the owners decided instead to invest their capital in the local, booming textile industry, adding yet another large mill to the Blackstone Valley.  The mills offered steady employment to a population that was accustomed to loud, dangerous, and difficult working conditions. 

David Lawlor has a degree in film studies from Suffolk University.  He is the founder of Run of the Mill, a company that specializes in drone and traditional photography.  A devoted advocate of abandoned mill buildings, he tries to photograph their industrial features before they are repurposed to other uses. 

Come with your questions!
