Foreign Film: Footnote
Lester Public Library
Tuesday, May 21, 6:00 PM
The story of a great rivalry between a father and son, both eccentric professors in the Talmud department of Hebrew University in Jerusalem. The son has an addictive dependency on the embrace and accolades that the establishment provides, while his father is a stubborn purist with a fear and profound revulsion for what the establishment stands for, yet beneath his contempt lays a desperate thirst for some kind of recognition. The Israel Prize, Israel's most prestigious national award, is the jewel that brings these two to a final, bitter confrontation.

No registration required, we’ll provide the popcorn, bring your own beverage. Open to all adults ages 18 and older.

Babygarten
Lester Public Library
Thursday, May 23, 10:15 & 6:30 PM
Babygarten is much more than a play group! Infants and their caregivers will share nursery rhymes, songs, and books but also get a chance to make fun projects that demonstrate the babies’ developmental milestones - usually a homemade toy or a baby book item. Many projects and activities will emphasize the importance of reading to babies AND parents will learn how to do this most effectively.  Each instructor will also share insight about infant development and parenting. The class concludes with a free play period. Program meets once a week for 6 weeks. Program is open to infants (birth to 18 months) and their caregivers and is limited to 12 participants per class.  To register, please call 793-7116.
