We invite you to come out to the library to sample some of the late fall programs we have planned, and to think of the library as a peaceful haven from leaf raking and the hectic whirl of holiday events and parties.
How much do you know about Delaware’s role in World War II? Dr. Gary Wray, through Delaware Humanities, will present his program “Delaware in World War II,” on Tuesday, November 5, at 7 p.m. This exciting presentation examines Delaware’s involvement in the war, including the surrender of the German U-boat 858 at Fort Miles, German prisoners in Delaware, and Delaware’s heroes in the war.
Both the Monday Cultural Film series and Thursday Night @ the Movies are offering recently released films in November. On Thursday, November 14, the 2019 film, The Art of Racing in the Rain, will be shown. This film tells the story of race car driver, Denny, his wife, young daughter, and his best friend, a dog that wants to be reincarnated into a human. Another 2019 film, The Farewell, will be shown on Monday, November 18. It tells the story of Billi’s family, as they return to China under the guise of a fake wedding to say goodbye to their beloved matriarch – the only person who doesn’t know she has only weeks to live. Show time for both films is 6:30 p.m.
Make reservations now for “Card Making with Cricut,” part of our adult technology series. Participants will learn about the die-cutting design machine, Cricut, and will “make & take” a holiday card of their own design. This program will be offered on Tuesday, November 19, at 6 p.m.
If you are looking for a beautiful and calming way to decompress during the holiday rush, consider attending a hand bell concert – on the library’s main floor – on Thursday, December 19, at 7:30 p.m. The Celebration Ringers of New Castle Presbyterian Church are back by popular demand to present a concert of seasonal music.
For a complete listing of all programs, please pick up a copy of the fall program brochure at the Reference Desk. Registration is requested for all programs listed above.
