Binational artist collective AMBOS Project has been supporting migrant communities in our border region through arts and crafts programs and mutual aid.

Thursday on Midday Edition, we sit down with AMBOS Executive Director Natalie Godinez to talk about how their art is building bridges on both sides of the border.

Also, summer blockbuster season is in in full swing! We sit down with our Midday Movies critics to talk about some of the most highly anticipated films, as the first ever summer blockbuster celebrates its 50th birthday.
