"Children's librarian. Kelley
Tarpley, came up with the idea
have "A Movie Under the
Stars" event here in Demopolis
several years ago after seeing
how successful it was in other
cities and the need for family
friendly entertainment here."
says library director Morgan
Grimes. "It was successful, so
we have tried to continue to do
this event as part of our summer
reading programming. Last
year we parmered with Kirk
Brooker, The Marengo Cotmty
Historical Society, and Collins
Communications and the event
was extremely successful with
over 100 people attending. The
Two Rivers Arts Council has
always thrived to bring arts pro-
grams into the schools and to
Demopolis, so partnering with
them for this event seemed like
a natural fit for the Library."
The event is sponsored by
The Two Rivers Arts Council,
The Friends of the Demopolis
Public Library, The Marengo
Historical Society, Collins
Communications, and The Chu
Clinic. Demopolis Area Habitat
for Humanity will sell hotdogs

drinks. We encourage you to
bring your lawn chairs, blankets
and bug spray to this free, fami-
ly friendly event. For more
