Library's New Program Space Is Setting
For Films and Crafts in May
|
On April 30, the Duo Marchand concluded the library's Shakespeare festival with a concert of music from the age of the Bard. |
The library plans to present two film programs this month on the 12-foot screen of our beautiful new program room. On Sunday, May 8, the Opera Club will present a 1 p.m. screening of La Traviata. It's a lush production of Verdi's tragic romance from the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, starring Angela Gheorgiu and Frank Lopardo. Sir Georg Solti conducts. (Please use the library's south entrance; all adults are welcome.)
On Wednesday, May 11, the library will present a 7 p.m. screening of the 2015 film, "The Big Short." This film is a dramatic retelling of the 2007-2008 financial crisis. Winner of Academy Awards for Best Picture and Best Writing, it features a fine acting ensemble including Steve Carell, Ryan Gosling, Christian Bale, and Brad Pitt. Adam McKay directs. All adults are welcome.
This month's adult crafts project is set for the eve of Mother's Day, from 2 to 4 p.m. on Saturday, May 7. Join our do-it-yourself wiz, Rachael, to make a springtime-fresh, all-natural body scrub for your Mom -- or even for yourself. All materials needed to make this unique bath treat will be provided.
