Moorestown Library

Summer is almost over … have you been to any museums lately?  We have passes to many local ones!

This month’s Community Art Gallery artist is Marsha Hemmings, an emerging painter of Jamaican descent.  Her beautiful paintings are acrylics and mixed media on canvas.

Marsha uses her “passion for color, texture and nature as a gateway to exploring human identity and isolation.”  Be sure to take a look at her work the next time that you’re in the library!

Her work will be on display through the end of August.

Our Sci Fi film festival continues with:

The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951)

A huge spaceship lands in Washington, D.C. bringing with it a space traveler (Michael Rennie) and a huge robotic companion with the ability to vaporize people.  The traveler poses as a human and rents a room in a house while he attempts to contact someone he can warn about Earth’s future. Directed by Robert Wise, this acclaimed sci-fi classic co-stars Patricia Neal, Hugh Marlowe, Billy Gray and Sam Jaffe.
