Lenox Library to Host New Film Club
![]() |
LENOX, Mass.—This February, Lenox Library will launch a new film club led and curated by film researcher and screenwriter Nannina Gilder.
Kanopy, a free streaming service available through nine of the libraries in the Berkshires (Lenox, Williamstown, North Adams, Adams, Pittsfield, Stockbridge, Lee, Great Barrington, and Sheffield), offers an eclectic, fun, and surprising selection of films and TV shows from classics to new releases. The Kanopy Film Club at Lenox Library will highlight what’s available, allowing library patrons to engage with the selections in the way they feel most comfortable.
For those who crave communal viewing experiences to get through the dark days of winter, starting February 5, 2025 and continuing on alternate Wednesdays (February 5, February 19, March 5, March 19), Lenox Library will show a film at 5:00 p.m. in its Welles Gallery followed by a brief discussion. In the off weeks there are suggestions of films to watch from home. However, for those who just want recommendations of what to watch at home, all of the films will be available to stream on Kanopy.
The film schedule will be:
- February 5: My Man Godfrey – Gregory La Cava, 1936 – 93 min – In Person
