Every once in awhile you find a gem. Here's one for folks living in the Finger Lakes region of New York. The Smith Center for The Arts at 62 Seneca St in Geneva has teamed up with the Finger Lakes Times to present an Author Film Series of eight pre-recorded hour long presentations and interviews with various authors on Sunday afternoons with a $5 admission. You can see the Feb. 26th description and the remaining series here. This Sunday's presentation is with Kathryn Stockett, author of The Help. Previous events in the series were David Brooks, author of The Social Animal: The Hidden Sources of Love, Character and Achievement and Susan Orlean, author of Rin Tin Tin. All of the series were filmed at the Philadelphia Free Library.
An enjoyable way to spend a Sunday afternoon. Also a nice example of how a community arts center can provide a valuable option to an area.
