A Day for All Creatures: Screening and Pet Food Drive

Celebrate the return of the beloved series with an event dedicated to the people who care for animals every day.

Come early to meet local animal health and welfare nonprofits from across the Lehigh Valley and pick up helpful resources. Then settle in for the premiere episode, followed by a lively, reporter-moderated conversation with local veterinarians as they share memorable moments and insights from their careers.

This event is free and open to all. Registration is requested.

Seating is first-come, first-served.

We’re proud to host a pet food collection drive benefiting the Animal Food Bank of the Lehigh Valley. If you’re able, please bring a donation to help ensure local families can keep their pets healthy, fed, and in their homes.

About the show:

We return to Darrowby in May 1945 to find Skeldale House at sixes and sevens. As victory in Europe is declared, there is the promise of peace at last, but James is wishing for a greater sense of peace at the surgery as he juggles vet work with a busy family life and an exceptionally challenging Siegfried. Helen’s enjoying time with young Jimmy and Rosie but has big changes afoot at Heston Grange to contend with. Tristan returns from several years at war and will have to re-adjust to life back home in Darrowby. Meanwhile, Mrs. Hall works hard to bring everybody back together and restore harmony at the surgery! We watch as our characters reconnect with each other and find their renewed purpose, as the world around them starts to breathe again and look to a brighter future.

All Creatures Great and Small is a timeless classic that continues to be much loved by generations of readers. Never out of print, the books have become a global cultural phenomenon with devoted fans around the world. With a sharp focus on community and its importance in our lives, Herriot’s world and spirit is a very much needed antidote to the challenges of our modern times, transporting viewers to a gentle past, populated with wonderfully observed characters. The series reminds us all that belonging to a community makes us part of something much greater than ourselves.
