This session runs for one hour and includes a single film showing aimed at all ages, especially school-aged children. The event is free and designed to be accessible for families; content is selected to be appropriate and enjoyable for children and their parents.
Registrations open three days before the screening, so make a note to register early to secure your family’s spot. The library asks that families arrive a few minutes early to check in and get settled before the film starts.
