Eddington
Eddington screens at the State Theatre as part of the TCFF season. The film focuses on a small-town conflict in Eddington, New Mexico, where a standoff between the sheriff and the mayor escalates and divides the community. There are two chances to see it, with both a matinee and an evening screening.
State TheatreAdult Coloring Night
Wind down with a calm evening of coloring paired with casual conversation. Coloring sheets and artist pencils are supplied, and herbal tea is available while you create. Geared toward adults, this laid-back gathering offers an easy way to relax and get a bit of creativity in. It takes place on the first Tuesday of each month.
East Bay Township Hall - North Conference RoomThe Open Page: A Queer Writers Group
The Open Page: A Queer Writers Circle is a welcoming writing group created in collaboration with Up North Pride and The Folded Leaf. It offers LGBTQ+ writers, questioning creatives, and allies a gentle space to write, explore, and connect. Each session begins with a short prompt inspired by themes such as queer literature, memory, identity, place, imagination, or joy, followed by quiet time to focus on the page. Sharing work is completely optional. No prior experience is needed, and reading aloud is never required. Poems, fiction, essays, memoir, journaling, letters, fragments, and unfinished thoughts are all embraced.
