At time of registration, you will have to set up an account with eventive.com or use your Facebook account to log in. You will have 72 hours to view each genre once you have begun watching. 1 ticket covers 1 screening by an entire household. Registration is necessary to access films. Registration begins April 1 at 9:00 am. Sponsored by Jane and Bill Murray.

Documentary Shorts Details: Adult themes and language. Please note that HUNGER WARD is a very intense look at child hunger in Yemen and the program is very much not for young audiences.

Live Action Shorts Details: Adult themes and language. One of the better Live Action programs in recent years.

Animated Shorts: The program overall, while excellent, deals with some tough issues and a few of the films are not suitable for children under 12. In IF ANYTHING HAPPENS, parents mourn their child, killed in a school shooting. GENIUS LOCI contains adult language, smoking, and very brief nudity.

A (Virtual) Celtic Concert with Mary-Kate of Seasons!

SEASONS7 pm – 8 pm via Facebook Live
Hi folks! One of the Seasons band households had a family member test positive for COVID-19 on Tuesday afternoon. Thankfully he is doing well (prayers appreciated!), but this puts half of the group in quarantine.

We can’t offer the concert as originally planned. As a special treat, however, Mary-Kate has agreed to represent the family band this St. Patrick’s Day with some Irish tunes on the harp so we can all still have a little luck o’ the Irish! Please tune in at 7pm and sing along!

The Seasons and Fredricksen families cannot wait to offer a concert with the whole band at the first possible opportunity. Stay safe, stay well, and Slainte! 

Mary-Kate Spring Lee

Harpist, Vocalist, Songwriter
