Celebrate National Library Week with a special screening of Free for All: The Public Library.

This compelling documentary tells the story of the quiet revolutionaries who made a simple yet radical idea possible: a civic institution where everything is free and the doors are open to all. From the pioneering women behind the Free Library Movement to today’s librarians serving their communities in an era of closures and book bans, Free for All explores the history, impact, and ongoing importance of public libraries. Join us for this timely film and a celebration of the enduring role libraries play in a democratic society. 

Seating is first-come, first-served. Register for email reminders on Eventbrite.

Film run time is: 85 minutes.
