Fairview Library
Fairview Library is inviting everyone in the community to come together this summer through the shared experience of reading the same book in its first ever Town Wide Read.
Town Wide Reads may be new to Fairview, but they are not a new idea. Nancy Pearl, Director of the Washington Center for the Book and creator of the first Town Wide Read has said about the endeavor: “People can go for days at a time not talking to anyone outside their immediate family. There are precious few opportunities for people of different ethnic backgrounds, economic levels or ages to sit down together and discuss ideas that are important to them. This project provides that opportunity.”
The book chosen for this summer’s Town Wide Read is One Foot in Eden by Ron Rash. The library has plenty of books in circulation for people to check out, and the Friends of Fairview Library will be selling copies of the book for $5.00 to anyone that would like to own one.
Small group book discussions are planned throughout the months of…

Fairview Library
In a career that spanned five decades, Billy Wilder is considered one of the most brilliant and versatile filmmakers of Hollywood’s Golden Age. Join us for part 2 of a 4 part retrospective of his brilliant career. Set in sunny Los Angeles, Sunset Boulevard tells the tale of an aging silent film star (Gloria Swanson) and an unsuccessful screenwriter (William Holden). With eccentricities and delusions of grandeur left and right, this film noir is considered one of the best satires ever produced about the Hollywood system.
Also starring Erich von Stroheim and Nancy Olsen, with cameos by Cecil B. DeMille, Hedda Hopper, and Buster Keaton (as themselves). All screenings will be hosted by North Carolina Film Critics Association member James Rosario (thedailyorca.com), who will introduce each film and lead a discussion after.
Free popcorn provided by Grail Moviehouse.
Not Rated.

Fairview Library
Fairview Library is inviting everyone in the community to come together this summer through the shared experience of reading the same book in its first ever Town Wide Read.
Town Wide Reads may be new to Fairview, but they are not a new idea. Nancy Pearl, Director of the Washington Center for the Book and creator of the first Town Wide Read has said about the endeavor: “People can go for days at a time not talking to anyone outside their immediate family. There are precious few opportunities for people of different ethnic backgrounds, economic levels or ages to sit down together and discuss ideas that are important to them. This project provides that opportunity.”
The book chosen for this summer’s Town Wide Read is One Foot in Eden by Ron Rash. The library has plenty of books in circulation for people to check out, and the Friends of Fairview Library will be selling copies of the book for $5.00 to anyone that would like to own one.
Small group book discussions are planned throughout the months of…

Fairview Library
Fairview Library is inviting everyone in the community to come together this summer through the shared experience of reading the same book in its first ever Town Wide Read.
Town Wide Reads may be new to Fairview, but they are not a new idea. Nancy Pearl, Director of the Washington Center for the Book and creator of the first Town Wide Read has said about the endeavor: “People can go for days at a time not talking to anyone outside their immediate family. There are precious few opportunities for people of different ethnic backgrounds, economic levels or ages to sit down together and discuss ideas that are important to them. This project provides that opportunity.”
The book chosen for this summer’s Town Wide Read is One Foot in Eden by Ron Rash. The library has plenty of books in circulation for people to check out, and the Friends of Fairview Library will be selling copies of the book for $5.00 to anyone that would like to own one.
Small group book discussions are planned throughout the months of…
