Mar 18, 2024 Tom Lake (Anne Patchett)

As in all of her novels, Ann Patchett combines compelling narrative artistry with piercing insights into family dynamics. The result is a rich and luminous story, told with profound intelligence and emotional subtlety, that demonstrates once again why she is one of the most revered and acclaimed literary talents working today.

Despite our best efforts, attendance post-pandemic has never rebounded to anywhere near pre-pandemic levels, most likely due to the expansion of streaming options. So, we are regrettably, suspending this program and will consider resurrecting it when the new pavilion is completed in Friendship Park in June of 2024.
Based on the popularity of our Flix program for families, we introduced something similar for adults on Saturday afternoons. So, mark your calendar, line up a babysitter, take in a free movie at the library and then top things off with a kid-free dinner at your favorite restaurant.
