UPCOMING EVENTS AT LAKEWOOD PUBLIC LIBRARY

Sunday, October 11
SUNDAY WITH THE FRIENDS: The Dixon Family Band
From rhythm & blues to the old rock’n’roll, this family plays American music dating back to the turn of the twentieth century. You’ll feel like you’ve stepped back in time and space into a smoky 1950s roadhouse—without leaving the clean, modern comfort of the Library.
2:00 p.m. in the Main Library Auditorium

Tuesday, October 13

TRUE CRIME CLEVELAND: Dusk & Shadow: The Mystery of Beverly Potts
Mark Wade Stone presents selections from Doris O’Donnell’s Cleveland, the Emmy award winning TV series on Cleveland history produced by Storytellers Media Group.
A short time before sunset—August 1951—was the last time they saw her. Ten-year-old Beverly Potts vanished without a trace and the case is unsolved to this day.
7:00 p.m. in the Main Library Auditorium

Thursday, October 15

THINK GREEN! PRESERVATION AND SUSTAINABILITY IN YOUR OLDER HOME
Jamie Bertram, the Director of Preservation Programs from the Cleveland Restoration Society, believes that sustainable initiatives and preservation go hand in hand. His program outlines the simple ways that owners of older homes can think green and be environmentally sensitive without changing the historic character of their home. They don’t need to break the budget, either!
7:00 p.m. in the Main Library Auditorium

Saturday, October 17

FIVE STAR FILMS: Bullets Over Broadway
(1994) Directed by Woody Allen Rated PG
In 1920s New York, gangsters and the Broadway stage collide with hilarious consequences. A mediocre playwright is forced to accept mobsters as producers of his play, or it will never see the footlights. Jennifer Tilly as a gangster’s actress girlfriend and Dianne Wiest as a past-her-prime diva are divine. Each earned an Oscar nomination. Also Stars: John Cusack, Chazz Palmintieri.
6:00 p.m. in the Main Library Auditorium

Sunday, October 18

SUNDAY WITH THE FRIENDS: Lizzie Borden
A proper Victorian lady from a respectable family, how could she commit such a heinous crime? Did she really give her father forty whacks? Actress Christy Igo invites you to be the judge in a moving (and often humorous) look at the strange case of Lizzie Borden.
2:00 p.m. in the Main Library Auditorium
