All Library locations will be closed Tuesday, December 24 & Wednesday, December 25, for the Christmas holiday.
Doors open: 8 pm • Program: 8:45 pm
Party on with Wayne (Mike Myers), Garth (Dana Carvey), and other assorted slackers and suits as the basement-dwelling duo tries to take their public-access TV show to the next level while fighting against corporate influence. To the Mirthmobile!
Tunes: Queen, Jimi Hendrix, Alice Cooper, Black Sabbath, and other headbangin’ classics.
This year the Library’s FREE Off-the-Wall rooftop summer film series highlights quirky characters fighting the status quo. These madcap movie escapades are set to memorable soundtracks ideally produced to serve up shenanigans.
