Join us on September 18 at 3:15pm for a family movie! Inside Riley’s mind, characters representing her emotions help her navigate life using the “control center” in her mind. When her parents announce she has to move away from her friends and hockey team, her control center that controls her feelings goes haywire! Joy and Sadness, opposite emotions, must work together to save Riley! Closed captions CC will be provided during every movie showing. Coloring pages, crossword puzzles, and wordsearches related to the films will be available during the program. The movie may end early to fit a 1.5 hour timeframe and to accommodate branch closing at 5pm. Parents must remain nearby for the duration of the program and not leave younger children unattended.
