Their Finest

Set during the German air blitz of London during WWII, THEIR FINEST is about a British film crew that attempts to boost morale by creating a propaganda film. Told with wry humor and honesty, it’s a delightful story about persevering through trying times. The excellent cast features Gemma Arterton and Sam Claflin, as well as Bill Nighy, Helen McCrory, Jeremy Irons, and Richard E. Grant. See the Ambler Theater's website here for a quick look at the trailer.

Following the 1 pm show, join us for a discussion of this film, moderated by library staff and by the theater.

Beading Group

So you’ve heard all about it, your friends are doing it, you’ve told yourself you’ve been meaning to do it, and here you are, still staring at that unused yoga mat!  There is a reason everyone who does Yoga talks about it all the time, how it changed their life, how you should come to a class with them. Can you guess the reason? Yoga works!

Showing up to a Yoga class for the first time can be nerve-racking- so before the start of our Fall 8-week Session, come take this FREE class with WVPL’s instructor, Matthew Mitlas, and experience what everyone’s been talking about. Learn in a body safe and judgment-free atmosphere. You might discover YOGA works for you, too!  This is a free demonstration, including time for Q&A.  Please wear comfortable clothing and bring a mat or towel on which to lie down.   Will you be there?  Let us know by signing up at the library in Blue Bell or online at yogawvpl.eventbrite.com.
