Holiday Movies and Music
2026-12-11 12:00:00 2026-12-11 13:25:00 America/Chicago Lunch & Learn Warren-Newport Public Library - Meeting Room A/B

Friday, December 11

Add to Calendar

Bring your lunch and join us for an engaging presentation on a variety of topics.

Journey back with us over the past 84 years as host John LeGear showcases some of the most warmly embraced songs, dances and holiday scenes ever captured at the movies. Look for more familiar faces like so many of those you may have seen in our 20 “movie music” film history presentations that we’ve been bringing to public libraries, community colleges, and senior centers since 2017.

Holiday Movies and Music will remind you why we surround ourselves with loved ones at the end of the calendar year to celebrate the joy of simply being together.
