It's our 75th anniversary, so this year we're taking a movie journey to revisit some of the amazing family movies that have been enjoyed by our patrons through the decades! In honor of the spooky season, we're going back to Salem, Massachusetts to check in with the wickedly funny Sanderson Sisters! 12 pm: Ghostbusters (1984, rated PG): A group of unemployed parapsychologists go into business as professional ghost neutralizers. But when New York City comes under attack from a host of supernatural demons, the self-proclaimed Ghostbusters must step up and save the world from the sinister 'Zuul.' 2 pm: Ghostbusters 2 (1984, rated PG): Having lost their status and credibility five years after covering New York City with gooey roasted marshmallows, the city's former heroes and once-popular spirit-hunters struggle to keep afloat, forced to work odd jobs. However, when Dana and her baby have yet another terrifying encounter with the paranormal, it is up to Peter Venkman and his fearless team of supernatural crime fighters to step up and save the day. This month we will be in the COLLABORATORY. Light snacks and movie licensing are courtesy of the Friends of the Richland Library. Feel free to bring blankets to lay on in front of the screen! We attempt to keep our family movies sensory-friendly as possible with plenty of ambient light, lower volume than the movie theaters, and room to fidget. If you need additional sensory accommodations, please let our staff know!
