A Weekday Matinee:
JAWS

In 1975 movie goers were told they’d never go in the water again.

Join us on the 50th Anniversary of Jaws to be amazed and terrified all over again!

We’ll have snacks and a big screen. Just like the movie theater, but Free!

July 9 at 1pm

Virtual Programs

We always love to see you in person, but did you know that you can stay home, chill, and learn something (or have some fun) at the same time with our Virtual Programs via Zoom.

We partner with other libraries in Mass, as well as plan our own programs to bring you a wide variety of topics and authors!
