Program Description
Community Movie Night
Join us for a joyful evening of community, laughter, and reflection at our next Community Movie Night on Saturday, September 13, from 7:00โ9:30 PM.
After our previous deep dive into The Matrix, weโre lightening the mood with the heartwarming and high-spirited film The School of Rock. While on the surface itโs a comedy about music and misfits, at its core, this film beautifully echoes Yogic themes of authenticity, purpose, and the liberating power of creative expression.
As Roger Ebert wrote, โItโs not only a funny and clever film, but it has a good heart, and delivers a serious message wrapped in comedy: Donโt let the world silence your song.โ Weโll enjoy popcorn, drinks, and a short group reflection afterward.
