Sunday movie: Red Joan (2018)
Our September Sunday movie is RED JOAN: Joan Stanley is a widow living out a quiet retirement in the suburbs when, shockingly, the British Secret Service places her under arrest. The charge: providing classified scientific information - including details on the building of the atomic bomb - to the Soviet government for decades. As the interrogation gets underway, Joan relives the dramatic events that shaped her life and her beliefs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkecgBW-Y80 TICKETS ARE: $5 Students & $8 Adults

Come and support your local college with their fundraising movie night these school holidays.
