Upcoming Event: Keith Michael Johnson's BUBBLEOLOGY!

Keith Michael Johnson presents: Bubbleology
Thursday, July 26th at 4 pm
Perrot Memorial Library Children's Wing
This show is for families with children age 5 and up.


As seen on Discovery Channel's "Time Warp", National Geographic TV and on-stage by invitation (twice) at America's largest science and engineering festival in DC, Keith uses bubbles—large and small—to explain liquids, solids and gasses, geometry, tension and pressure.

Keith builds beautiful sculptural creations (massive & miniature) with enthusiasm, humor and style.  One moment he will be encasing a dinosaur in a bubble and in the next moment he's encapsulating an audience volunteer.


Be dazzled by a bubbly Eiffel Tower, a dancing snow-white snow-man and a spinning space ship as it races toward the ceiling!

While those demonstrations snare viewers attention—Keith reveals the science behind the magic, unfolding the "how-to" like a mystery, making it both educational and unforgettable.


Call us (203-637-8802) or stop by the Youth Services Desk to sign up. We are not handing out tickets for this event, but advance sign-up is required.

FIELD OF DREAMS (1989, Rated PG, 107 minutes)
Saturday, July 14th, 2018 at 8:30 PM
[No Rain Date]

Iowa farmer Ray Kinsella (Kevin Costner) hears a voice in his corn field tell him, "If you build it, he will come." He interprets this message as an instruction to build a baseball field on his farm, upon which appear the ghosts of Shoeless Joe Jackson (Ray Liotta) and the other seven Chicago White Sox players banned from the game for throwing the 1919 World Series. When the voices continue, Ray seeks out a reclusive author (James Earl Jones) to help him understand the meaning of the messages and the purpose for his field.
