An Intro to Italian Horror

Budgets? Coherent Plots? Professional Actors? Humane treatment of Animals? 

NAH.

We're talking about Italian Horror, everyone! It's weird, it's gross, and it's the perfect way to kick off the spookiest month of the year. We'll cover the essential films, directors you need to know, and some of the most notorious scenes in cinema!

This program will be presented via Zoom.

Genealogy Series: Look At This Life - How Thinking Like a Biographer Can Make You A Better Genealogist

Genealogy can often feel like a race to prove relationships and build pedigree charts, but what happens when we stop, slow down, and explore just one person’s life from start to finish? In this class, we’ll think more like a biographer than a genealogist as we create research plans, dig for context and unearth the life story of a single individual.

Drag on Film: A Cinematic History

Drag. Cross-dressing. Gender bending. Whatever you want to call it, it's almost as old as performance itself. And it's been on screen practically since cinema's birth! Early silent works, Victor and Victoria, Some Like it Hot, Cabaret, Tootsie, To Wong Foo, and even Madea- we'll look at how this art form has been portrayed on the silver screen.
