Second Friday Flicks [2011-12]
Coordinators: Rus Simpson and Elaine Richane
377-6031 or simpsonr@frontiernet.net (Rus); 388-6978 or richanee@frontiernet.net (Elaine)
2nd Fridays, October to December and February to April (6 total)
Films at 7pm (Munchies available from 6:45pm)
Films are selected and hosted by participants. The evening's volunteer host(s) provides the introduction and lead the discussion following the film. While the presentations are enjoyed in and for themselves, they are also catalysts, which spark wonderful discussions and sharing among those attending. There is often a camaraderie, which develops that greatly enhances the experience. It is a sharing of knowledge, thoughts and feelings, which are generated through our viewing of the films, our being together and our creating meaningful experiences.

Contact: Sue Ames at samesRN@yahoo.com
The Williams Gallery Art Committee plans and displays the work of many artists each year at First Unitarian in the Williams Gallery. See the current schedule here; join the committee if you want to be part of putting these shows together.
