Event Description

Enjoy the best of classic, independent, and foreign films curated by The Concord Film Project, with pre-show dinner options. WEDNESDAY, MAY 21, 2025 at 7:30pm In this acclaimed satire, Monk is a frustrated novelist who's fed up with the establishment that profits from Black entertainment that relies on tired and offensive tropes. To prove his point, he uses a pen name to write an outlandish Black book of his own -- a book that propels him to the heart of hypocrisy and the madness he claims to disdain. Dramedy/Satire Directed by Cord Jefferson (2023) 1 hr 57 mins Rated R Film Tickets: $10 Optional pre-ordered dinner at 6:30; Film tickets and additional concessions available at the door. Delicious meal options are available as an add-on from Adelita!

    At the library’s public unveiling of the collections on March 28, 2026, renowned Alcott scholar Daniel Shealy observed that the new holdings encompass “numerous unpublished letters, hundreds of books, complete manuscripts, important presentation copies of books—most of them first editions—ephemera, photographs, first appearances of tales in periodicals, obscure and rare printings of books, and even unpublished journals.” According to Professor Shealy, the collections as a whole are “almost breathtaking in [their] scope and importance.”
