Monthly: meets 3rd Wednesday of each month.

FREE children's music classes held in the Library's Children's Room. Presented by Moon River Music Together with Catherine Rubin, the class will explore how the early childhood program of Music Together® teaches music through play.

Young children are given the opportunity to develop basic competence in music by providing them with a rich musical experience in a relaxed and playful environment. Catherine believes that every child is musical and that each child needs a stimulating, supportive music environment to enjoy the wonderful human capacity for music-making. Join us to see how much fun music classes can be!

ONCE (2006). Simultaneously one of the most charming, captivating love stories ever, and probably the most realistic look at how songs are written, recorded, played, lived in, and loved, ONCE (made on a shoestring - only $160,000! - and in a hurry) took the world by storm. Anchored by the completely natural, winning performances of real-life musicians (and non-actors) Glen Hansard, a veteran Irish singer/songwriter, and Markéta Irglová, a 19-year-old Czech singer and pianist, ONCE won the Oscar for Best Original Song, and launched a successful career for the two as a duo. If you haven't seen this humble, wonderful film, don't miss it! (If you have, you'll be there!)

THE UMBRELLAS OF CHERBOURG (LES PARAPLUIES DE CHERBOURG) (1964). A soaring, glorious musical fantasy, "Les Parapluies" is a classic film now beautifully restored. Jacques Demy elevates the basic drama of everyday life into a soaring opera full of bittersweet passion and playful charm, featuring a timeless performance from Catherine Deneuve. The film, like its glamorous star, is ageless. An enchanting film for a special time of year!
