TUESDAY NIGHT MOVIE CLUB
Tuesday, September 28 @ 6:00pm
ICN Room
On the 4th Tuesday each month you are invited to come enjoy a movie, eat some popcorn, and if you’d like, stay after for a brief discussion! It is like a book club, but you come and watch a movie instead! We will be kicking off this club with a series of bestselling documentaries. Regular attendance is not required so just come when you can! Free popcorn is sponsored by the Urbandale Library Foundation.
*November meeting will be on the 3rd Tuesday & no meeting in December.
*Recommended for age 17 & up.
