Commissioner Jean-Pierre L. Oriol of the Department of Planning and Natural Resources announces that the Florence Williams Public Library will host a free “Movie Day at the Library” on Saturday, May 23, from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. in Christiansted.
The feature film, James and the Giant Peach, offers families and readers of all ages to enjoy a magical adventure on the big screen.
“Movie time is here at the Florence Williams Public Library!” said Director Amy DeSorbo. “We encourage the community to read along and experience the story in advance. James and the Giant Peach is available in both audio and digital formats through the U.S. Virgin Islands Digital Library on Hoopla Digital—so you can read, listen, and then enjoy the film with us.”
This free community event is part of the library’s ongoing effort to promote literacy and family-friendly programming in a fun and engaging environment.
