- **Event Name**: Dickens' "A Christmas Carol" Reading
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 21 Dec, 2025 at 06:00 pm
- **Event Description**: The evening brings Joe Friedman, in period costume, to read aloud Charles Dickens' beloved classic, A Christmas Carol, for our enjoyment. The lightly abridged dramatic reading lasts two hours including a short intermission. Bring your puzzles, knit, sew or make crafts (a great time to make ornaments!) – whatever your preferred activity – while you listen to a veteran actor bring Dickens' novella to life. Joe is in his 36th year of reading this story for others.

Invite friends to come and hear this timeless redemption story. Let Joe enliven in your imagination the characters of Ebenezer Scrooge, Marley, Tiny Tim with the rest of the Cratchits, and the Ghosts of Christmas: Past, Present, and Yet To Come. Feel free to dress in period costume!

Are Children Welcome? Yes, of course...

...Parents should use their discretion as to whether their children have the right temperament for a two hour reading.

No tickets needed: free for all as Joe's gift. Join us in the upstairs Den at 6:00PM.
