Earth Day, Arbor Day, & Anime

April celebrates two environmentally-friendly days: Earth Day (4/22) and Arbor Day (4/27). It also celebrates Japanese Heritage Day (4/30), so this year Cotuit Library decided to screen two movies that combines all of these themes.

By internationally famous director Hayao Miyazaki, known for his themes of environmental consciousness, we’ll be showing Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind (PG) on 4/21  & Princess Mononoke (PG – 13) on 4/27. Both movies portray the effects that humans have on the world around us, and the struggle to keep it alive.

Attendance to the movies is free, but please register at cotuitlibrary.org/events or contact the library.
