It's time for another popular Classic Cinema Night at YPL.  This month's film is the screwball romantic comedy: Lady Eve.  Don't miss
one of Preston Sturges' most clever and beloved films.  It provides the perfect combination of slapstick humour and sophisticated sexiness.

Tuesday, March 1 at 7pm.  Free!  Popcorn included!
