Groups & Meetups

Listen up Book Club

Stop by for the Listen up Book Club read-aloud meetup at The Philosopher’s House. This is a drop-in format, so you do not need to read anything in advance or prepare ahead of time. Enjoy a snack or tea at the counter, listen as the facilitator reads the opening portion of a classic novel, and stay for socializing before and after along with a literature discussion if you are interested. Feel free to bring a portable craft or textile project (or anything similar) to work on while you listen.

Family

The Sword and the Stone at The Jackson Theatre

Join us for a family-friendly showing of Disney’s The Sword in the Stone. This classic, rated G adventure blends humor, spectacle, and a bit of magic as Wart, an unlikely apprentice, learns what it really takes to be a great king with help from Merlin. The performance runs about 75 minutes, and it’s part of the Family Series with pay what you can.
