About Hidden Figures
Three brilliant African-American women at NASA — Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan, and Mary Jackson — serve as the brains behind one of the greatest operations in history: the launch of astronaut John Glenn into orbit, a stunning achievement that restored the nation’s confidence, turned around the Space Race and galvanized the world. Based on the true story as told by Margot Lee Shetterly.
About Read, Watch, Connect
Based completely around book to movie adaptations, Read, Watch, Connect is a collaboration between The Smith and Geneva Public Library with support by Geneva Reads.
Each week through the month of April patrons will be able to watch the film on the Smith’s huge projection screen then join the Public Library for a variety of free virtual programming from trivia competitions to take and make crafts.
Those who attend both the screening and virtual event will be entered in a raffle to win a set of Smith movie passes and a copy of the book, provided by Geneva Reads.
