Irish Stories and Glories with Sandy Mortimer Saturday, Oct. 3 at 7:30 p.m. King Concert Hall The richness of Ireland lies not only in the beauty of the land, but in the stories of its people. In this film you “meet” some of those who have lived here throughout the millennium. Travel the Emerald Isle from north to south and take in the little-known and seldom-seen sites that create their own special bit of magic. Those discoveries, and so much more, are waiting for you in Irish Stories and Glories.
The Best of Bavaria with Fran Reidelberger Saturday, Nov. 7 at 7:30 p.m. King Concert Hall Located in the southeast corner of Germany, Bavaria is a region rich in history and tradition. Fran Reidelberger captures these elements in this stunning panorama.
