On Wednesday nights, the old church glows again with scissors, paper scraps, and a picture show.Supplies and inspiration are provided, so just show up. Knitters, stitchers, sketchers, zinesters, and makers of all kinds are welcome to bring their own projects. Just here for the film? Grab a seat. There's a little something for you too.Opening night, Oct 21: Plan 9 from Outer Space (1957), Ed Wood's legendary "worst movie ever made." Film starts at 6:20.Free, with optional donations to Spire.
