At the Library, November 5 to 8: Teen Makers, Two Book Groups, a Film, and a Classic Musical

The Brookfield Library, at 182 Whisconier Road, has a full second half of the week, with something for teens, book groups, and moviegoers. Thursday, November 5, opens with Teen Makers from 4:30 to 5:30 p.m., then two Booked for the Evening discussions at 6:30 p.m.: "The God of the Woods" by Liz Moore, meeting virtually, and "Husbands" by Holly Gramazio, meeting in person. Two groups at the same hour means readers can pick the book, and the format, that suits them.

Friday, November 6, brings the Friday Film Series from 1 to 2:30 p.m., listed as "The God of the Woods" by Liz Moore, the same title as Thursday's virtual book group.

Sunday, November 8, closes the week with a Movie Matinee from 1 to 3 p.m.: "The King and I" from 1956, the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical. It is an afternoon screening, a good fit for families and for anyone who prefers a daytime outing to an evening one.

Earlier in the week, the library's regular children's programs run as usual, including Time for Twos and Storytime Adventures on Monday and Babies & Bumps and Family Storytime on Tuesday. Saturday, November 7, has no program listed in the library's event list, which jumps from Friday's film to Sunday's matinee.

Programs at the library are free, and some ask for registration in advance, so checking the library's event list before heading over is wise, especially for the evening book groups. The library's own event page is the source for times and any registration notes.
