Apollo 11 Documentary
- Calendar: Scarborough Public Library Adult Services
- Start time: 06:30pm
- The Library's Retro Summer Series commemorates the 50th Anniversary of the Stonewall Riots, Apollo 11 moon landing, and Woodstock festival. Join us for the screening of the newly released documentary Apollo 11. Be a witness to never-before-seen footage of the July 16, 1969 mission that placed the first man on the moon. This is not a narrated documentary, but rather a historical archive that will provide viewers with a "virtual seat" beside commander Neil Armstrong and pilots Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins and Mission Control. This documentary is an excellent companion to the Chasing the Moon series being offered on PBS. The event is free to attend and open to the public. Seating is limited.

Drop-In Sketching Group
- Calendar: Scarborough Public Library Adult Services
- Start time: 10:00am
- Noodling. Doodling. Dabbling. If a program description includes these words, you can be sure it will be relaxed and fun. Leave inhibitions behind and create free-form drawings, journal entries, small cards, or tiny books using simple items like a drawing pencil or roller ball pen and a notepad or journal. While there is no “instructor” per se (again, this is a casual drop-in activity), we’ll be joined by Michael David Brown, a retired illustrator and Scarborough resident. This event is free to attend. Basic supplies will be available or bring your own.
