Join or Die with Special Guest: Warm Cookies of the Revolution

When: Sept 5, 6:30pm

Where: Boulder Public Library, Canyon Gallery

NO REGISTRATION REQUIRED

“Join or Die” is a film about why you should join a club—and why the fate of America depends on it. Follow the story of America’s civic unraveling through the journey of Robert Putnam’s research. His legendary “Bowling Alone”  tracks the decline of American community connections and may hold the answers to our democracy’s present crisis.

With an introduction from Chris Barge of the Boulder Library Foundation and Evan Weissman of Warm Cookies of the Revolution, this event kicks off the Boulder Public Library’s Democracy Series this fall through September and October. Enjoy hotdogs (regular and veggie), chips and drinks grilled up and served on site by Mustard’s Last Stand. Movie begins at 6:30 p.m. 1hr 39min. Not Rated. Closed captions provided.

Theater seating and refreshments are first come, first served.
