From Italian Film Salon

Hi neighbors—I'm hosting an **8-week Italian Film Salon** at Electric Lodge (free parking) starting in May and wanted to share it with the community. Each Sunday we’ll screen a great Italian film (with English subtitles), enjoy a glass of Italian wine, and have a relaxed, informal discussion afterward. It’s designed to be welcoming and low-key—no film background or Italian required. If you enjoy film, culture, or just a thoughtful way to spend a Sunday afternoon, (12:00-3:00pm, not 7:PM) you’re very welcome to join us. Full lineup & details here: www.cine-Salon.org
