Downton Abbey on the Big Screen at Calvert Library

 

Calvert Library Prince Frederick is hosting popular PBS series Downton Abbey on their big screen and inviting anyone interested to come start with Season One.  They are also encouraging you to bring your knitting with you.  The series begins on Tuesday, September 18, at 5:00pm and will continue the third Tuesday of each month until there is no longer a solid audience for it. 

 

The newish building for Calvert Library Prince Frederick has always been a gathering place and many of the events hosted there aim to provide opportunities for those with similar interests a chance to meet like-minded people.  Many crafting groups have found the library welcoming to their hobby.  Perhaps that’s because library director Patricia Hofmann happens to be a knitter.  This diversion has prompted her to offer to hostess a series where knitting, crocheting, cross-stitching, needlepoint or whatever your chosen busy-work is welcomed.  “Gardening season is almost over so now I can start to work on my knitting projects.  I love to get more than one thing accomplished at a time and I’ve heard that I MUST watch Downton Abbey… so this series was born.  We start at 5pm so we can eat dinner while knitting, enjoying nice company, watching a great show and still be able to get to any evening meeting or events that start at 7pm.” Hofmann has sometimes been described as a multi-tasker.  Robyn Truslow, Public Relations Coordinator says that the “other” reason the library chose a 5pm start was that the library likes “to have a variety of events that are accessible to various people and a number of folks have told us that they don’t like to drive at night.  This series is for them!”
