SUMMARY:Emily and J.G.
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Clapp Memorial Library on Monday\, July 20 at 6pm for Emily & J.G.\, a lively conversation that will touch the heart. For much of her life\, Poet Emily Dickinson corresponded with Belchertown’s own J.G. Holland and his wife\, sharing the intimate moments of their lives through language—currents of the 19th century\, recipes\, snippets of poems\, news of children\, the nature of friendship\, love\, art\, longing and grief. \nThe conversation between Emily and Dr. Holland brings to life the ideas\, humor and wisdom of the lifelong relationship between the poet who never married\, the traditional Victorian woman raising a family (Mrs. Holland) and her husband—the renowned writer of his day\, whose newspaper\, The Springfield Daily Republican\, printed the only poems Emily published in her lifetime. \nThis program is funded in part by a grant from the Belchertown Cultural Council\, a local agency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council\, a state agency.

SUMMARY:Pride Movie Matinee: Stonewall Uprising
DESCRIPTION:Grab your popcorn for this program series! Tuesdays in June we’re showing a series of films for Pride Month in our Activity Room! Features include a Hayes-code era classic\, a teen coming of age\, parents helping their son propose\, and a documentary. Snacks provided\, no registration required. \nStonewall Uprising (2010)\, TV14\, 1hr 22min\nIn the early morning hours of June 28\, 1969\, police raided the Stonewall Inn\, a popular gay bar in the Greenwich Village section of New York City. Such raids were not unusual in the late 1960s\, an era when homosexual sex was illegal in every state but Illinois. That night\, however\, the street erupted into violent protests and demonstrations that lasted for the next six days. \nThe Stonewall riots\, as they came to be known\, marked a major turning point in the modern gay civil rights movement in the United States and around the world. \nPublic performance rights provided through Kanopy
