The Racine Public Library, 75 Seventh St., is providing two programs in partnership with JavaVino, 424 Main St. in Downtown Racine.
• Cultural Film Series – Local film enthusiasts are invited to attend Cultural Film nights at JavaVino to preview some of the Racine Public Library's collection of intriguing foreign films. Appetizers, wine and coffee are available for purchase during the film. Participants are encouraged to then visit Downtown Racine's finest restaurants for dinner.
The next film in the series will be shown on Saturday, March 21 at 5 p.m. The movie is free and no registration is necessary.
This month's feature is "The Grocer's Son" from France. In this film, 33 year old Antoine is forced to return from city living to his family home in Provence to help maintain the family business while his father is ill. As he assumes the lifestyle of a grocery cart driver delivering from hamlet to hamlet, he begins to rediscover life and love in the countryside.
"The Grocer's Son," directed by Eric Guirado is a multiple award winner at international film festivals. Film Journal International calls the film, "Captivating…intoxicating. This valentine to country life is…that proverbial gem that art-house fans should discover and savor."
Because these films are not rated, the Racine Public Library is unable to recommend them for children under age 17.
• Saturday Stories - Families of children ages 8 and younger are invited to spend select Saturday mornings with storytellers from the Racine Public Library at JavaVino. The next event will be held March 21 from 9:30-10:30 a.m. and will feature storytelling with a simple craft. Enjoy a relaxing morning of breakfast fun with your children. This is a free event and no registration is necessary.
