1916 Silent action/adventure film with live accompaniment.
The notorious masked bandit of the American Wild West, “Draw” Egan, narrowly escapes a posse of lawmen during a shootout with him and his gang. He flees to the town of Yellow Dog where he assumes the new identity of William Blake (yes, the same name as the English poet and protagonist in Jim Jarmusch’s western, Dead Man). After winning a brawl with a lawless character, he is offered the job of marshal. With eyes for the mayor’s daughter, he accepts and begins cleaning up the town, though it is not long before Egan’s past catches up to him.

Bring Us Your Weeds!
We will have a team of experts identify your worst invasive plant species and give you advice on how to control them. Register at http://mc-iris.org/sustaining-nature-and-your-land-day.html to get the Zoom link, and to upload pictures of your weed. You can also register and show us the weed while we are on the Zoom call if you like.
Invasive species are one of the greatest threats to Monroe County, Indiana’s forests and wetlands. MC-IRIS works with landowners, educators, researchers, and agencies all over the county to protect our diverse natural areas from Invasive species. Join us at our meetings, work days, or educational events to be part of the solution! Enjoy the 1 minute video on MC-IRIS below and check our calendar for upcoming events.
Invasive plants harm pollinators, wildlife, and rare species. And they cost money – $15 billion/year nationally! They can reduce your ability to enjoy hunting, fishing, mushroom collecting, bird-watching and other recreational pursuits.

A shy adolescent boy, Walter (Haley Joel Osment), is taken by his greedy mother (Kyra Sedgwick) to spend the summer with his two hard-boiled great-uncles, Hub (Robert Duvall) and Garth (Michael Caine), who are rumored to possess a great fortune. At first, the two old men, both set in their ways, find Walter’s presence a nuisance, but they eventually warm up to the boy and regale him with tall tales from their past. In return, Walter helps reawaken their youthful spirit.

In this bittersweet Parisian romance from Cédric Klapisch (The Spanish Inn, Russian Dolls, Back to Burgundy), warehouse employee Rémy (François Civil) and research assistant Mélanie (Ana Girardot) have never met, but they live parallel lives—they reside in neighboring apartment buildings, ride the same subway route, and are troubled by bouts of insomnia and depression. Their days punctuated by unfulfilling jobs, they seek meaningful romantic and platonic connection. As they stumble through psychotherapy, dating apps, fainting spells, and family visits, the seemingly star-crossed duo orbit around each other but remain just out of reach. Klapisch spins a delicate “what-if” from their compartmentalization, exploring our increasingly hermetic modern urban life. In French with English Subtitles.

SIREN acts as a technical advisor on a non-profit, volunteer basis. SIREN and its volunteers are not paid in any way. The City of Bloomington collaborates with SIREN on this program to further demonstrate its support for renewable energy. See https://bloomington.in.gov/sustainability/solarize for details. **the city does not subsidize purchases**
The Solar Indiana Renewable Energy Network (SIREN) formed in 2008 to promote an alternative energy model to reduce dependence on coal. Since then, we have continued to help more and more homes, businesses, churches, governmental buildings, and schools become solar powered. By presenting free, public Going Solar programs, and organizing Solarize group-purchase programs in partnership with city teams around the state, we help overcome barriers to adoption of solar in the Midwest by demonstrating its performance, affordability, and availability. If you want to see our culture move away from fossil fuels as a foundation, embracing the possibility of carbon-neutral energy, then join our efforts right here in southern Indiana.

Introducing 2020 for 2020. Let’s be honest—we are all concerned at this moment in time about what the future holds. Understandably, we are thinking about the future of the Brown County Playhouse, trying to ensure long-term sustainability and a bright future.
The Playhouse is a historical jewel that needs to continue the tradition of bringing great entertainment to our visitors and local folks as well for many years to come. So, after much thoughtful consideration, we came up with this idea for two win/win offers that can help us both. Here are two ways to support through this program.
We need your partnership. We need your support.This is our time to shine, working together to sustain and provide for the future of the Brown County Playhouse. There are many memories built through the decades of high-quality, historical performances, and many memories yet to be made. We all have a vested interest in this. Thank you for your support, both in the past and in the future.
“We would like to encourage shoppers who are concerned about crowd size to attend during the first hour as we want to give them the best experience for their situation.” The first hour will continue to be reserved for the elderly and immunocompromised for the next several weeks as the need is evident.”
The market will once again be located on the west side of the courthouse square in downtown Bedford. Customers will be able to park along J Street.
Many vendors accept WIC vouchers for fresh produce. The Bedford Farmers Market has also teamed with IU Health- Bedford to provide bonus vouchers to WIC recipients. The vouchers can be used when purchasing fresh produce.
The basic structure will remain the same, but customers can expect to see changes to each vendor’s displays. The use of pre-packaged options and order pick-up will likely be used more frequently.
The market has adopted the following Market Manners for attendees:
• Do not enter the market if you are sick.
• Make a shopping list.
• Send only one person from the family into the market.
• Wait in your vehicle if lines form.
• No pets will be allowed.
• Keep six feet between people.
• Do not touch surfaces.
• Touch only what you intend to buy.
• Use handwashing station if needed.
• We love you, but please do not linger.

Meet the Beatles! Just one month after they exploded onto the U.S. scene with their Ed Sullivan Show appearance, John, Paul, George, and Ringo began working on a project that would bring their revolutionary talent to the big screen. A Hard Day’s Night, in which the bandmates play cheeky comic versions of themselves, captured the astonishing moment when they officially became the singular, irreverent idols of their generation and changed music forever. Directed with raucous, anything-goes verve by Richard Lester, A Hard Day’s Night reconceived the movie musical and remains one of the most deliriously entertaining movies of all time.
Free, but donations appreciated.

N THE SPIRIT OF TRYING NEW THINGS and keeping it fun and interesting, here is our newest, latest, greatest idea. Ready? So, you know how sometimes people buy a Mystery Box, not knowing what is inside on the promise that it is something good and worth at least as much as was paid for it? This is a spin on that idea.
We are going to do a series of themed “Mystery Box Movies” that will include a great movie with a great Mystery Box snack. The catch? You don’t know what the movie is until the screen lights up. It’s a surprise! It’s all about the intrigue. Who doesn’t like a surprise?
Trust us. We want to bring you the best in entertainment. We will have teaser hints along the way, and you might get a good idea or even guess the movie.
Our first MBM is The 80’s Edition. COME DRESSED IN YOUR FAVORITE 80’s STYLES.
The cost is $15, and includes a snack box by Nashville Fudge Kitchen. It’ll be gnarly and tubular. Duh.
Enjoy this art fair and live music sponsored by Friends of McCormick’s Creek! Check back at a closer date for more information, but make sure to get this date on your calendar.

“We would like to encourage shoppers who are concerned about crowd size to attend during the first hour as we want to give them the best experience for their situation.” The first hour will continue to be reserved for the elderly and immunocompromised for the next several weeks as the need is evident.”
The market will once again be located on the west side of the courthouse square in downtown Bedford. Customers will be able to park along J Street.
Many vendors accept WIC vouchers for fresh produce. The Bedford Farmers Market has also teamed with IU Health- Bedford to provide bonus vouchers to WIC recipients. The vouchers can be used when purchasing fresh produce.
The basic structure will remain the same, but customers can expect to see changes to each vendor’s displays. The use of pre-packaged options and order pick-up will likely be used more frequently.
The market has adopted the following Market Manners for attendees:
• Do not enter the market if you are sick.
• Make a shopping list.
• Send only one person from the family into the market.
• Wait in your vehicle if lines form.
• No pets will be allowed.
• Keep six feet between people.
• Do not touch surfaces.
• Touch only what you intend to buy.
• Use handwashing station if needed.
• We love you, but please do not linger.
Free admission to the Y with a non-perishable food or hygiene item donation.

SIREN acts as a technical advisor on a non-profit, volunteer basis. SIREN and its volunteers are not paid in any way. The City of Bloomington collaborates with SIREN on this program to further demonstrate its support for renewable energy. See https://bloomington.in.gov/sustainability/solarize for details. **the city does not subsidize purchases**
The Solar Indiana Renewable Energy Network (SIREN) formed in 2008 to promote an alternative energy model to reduce dependence on coal. Since then, we have continued to help more and more homes, businesses, churches, governmental buildings, and schools become solar powered. By presenting free, public Going Solar programs, and organizing Solarize group-purchase programs in partnership with city teams around the state, we help overcome barriers to adoption of solar in the Midwest by demonstrating its performance, affordability, and availability. If you want to see our culture move away from fossil fuels as a foundation, embracing the possibility of carbon-neutral energy, then join our efforts right here in southern Indiana.
