Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Patrons will be able to enjoy art through movies that they may not otherwise be able to access, learn about a variety of topics through documentaries and educational films, and be exposed to new perspectives through film art.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Patrons love movie nights at the library. Feedback included praise for offering films that provoke thinking and understanding of other people, cultures, and historical times, as well as for providing a free activity/outing for community members. This is something that can be enjoyed by all ages - from small children attending Family Movie Night to teens, adults, and seniors.
