Program Description

Event Details

Welcome to Rainbow Skies! Every month, we meet to discuss a story with LGBTQIA+ representation. You're welcome to our in-person meetings on the second Saturday of every month or to participate virtually

This month's read is Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop CafĂ© by Fannie Flagg. Mrs. Threadgoode's tale of two high-spirited women of the 1930s, Idgie and Ruth, help Evelyn, a 1980s woman in a sad slump of middle age, to begin to rejuvenate her own life. 

We'll watch the movie adaptation (PG-13; 1991) and discuss the book and the movie to end the meeting.
