"Out to Lunch"
FEED YOUR FACE - WHILE WE FEED YOUR BRAIN FEATURING Elvira Woodruff
The Bell is excited to offer a series of lunches and lectures to senior citizens, 55 and over. Once a month a lively lecture will be given by a local speaker (on a wide range of topics) to be followed by a light lunch, a sandwich, drink, and cookies. We’ve set the price for this at an affordable $7.00, so that as many people can take advantage of this entertaining opportunity- ‘To Lunch and to Learn’.
Our speaker is author, Elvira Woodruff.
Just Who planted Thomas Jefferson's Garden?
Thomas Jefferson’s garden at Monticello is one of America’s most important gardens. In terms of seed variety, it stands out as one of the boldest horticultural experiments in its time.
For years any talk of the garden was focused on Jefferson - the garden’s designer and owner. But visitors to Monticello today will come away with a deeper if not more disturbing look at just who planted and labored to maintain this horticultural wonder.
In this presentation we’ll travel to 18th century Virginia to take a closer look at one of America’s most historic gardens.
Booked at the Bell Bookclub
Happy New Year, Book Lovers! Join hosts Regina Marinelli & Melba Tolliver on February 13th at 6:30 p.m. to kick-off our 2025 book discussion series.
We will begin with a memoir called Crying in H Mart by Michelle Zauner. Zauner may be better known as the guitarist in a band called Japanese Breakfast and her debut book is a tender account of her grief surrounding her mother’s battle with pancreatic cancer. This book originated as a short story before evolving into a book and is destined for the big screen.
Despite the heart-wrench, Zauner will spark our appetites as she reminds us that food often ties us to those who have passed. Written in 2021, Crying in H Mart, was a NYT best-seller, received the 2021 Goodreads Choice Award for Memoir & Autobiography and was named top book of the year by numerous publications.
Come Join us at the Bell Tower Cultural Center in Martins Creek as we celebrate our SECOND ANNUAL Valentines Day "Dinner and a Movie" presentation! This year we celebrate with the Movie, Shakespeare in Love followed by a delicious traditional Lasagna Dinner (Vegetarian option available) with local wine followed by the world famous cannoli. All for a VERY reasonable $30.00/person. Limited Seating Available
Shakespeare In Love is a romantic comedy set in 1590. The young Will Shakespeare is fresh out of ideas and low on cash when he meets the love of his life, inspiring him to write his most romantic play. The film imaginatively unfolds the witty, sexy and timeless tale behind the creation of the greatest love story ever told. Winner of 7 Academy awards, starring Gwyneth Paltrow, Joseph Fines, Ben Affleck, Judi Dench, and Colin Firth, this is a celebration of romantic love for all the ages. Come prepared to look, listen, and fall in love.

The Power of Poetry & Photography: A look at Poet Langston Hughes & Photographer Gordon Parks
Our speaker is author, Michael Steiner.
His topic, Two Powerhouses in Chicago’s Black Renaissance is a fascinating look at the groundbreaking poetry of Langston Hughes and the equally powerful photography of Gordon Parks. We’ll look at both of their contributions to the Black Renaissance of the 1930’s and 40’s and their renewed relevance today.
After teaching American Studies for forty years at California State University, Michael Steiner has moved to Easton along with his longtime partner, Lucy, to live near their children and grandchildren.
He has been a Fullbright Scholar in Hungry and Poland and has published five books and more than thirty articles on subjects ranging from Walt Disney’s vision of the mythic West to novelist Richard Wright’s love- hate relationship with Chicago.
