About this Event
Join the West End Museum for a screening of the holiday classic “It’s A Wonderful Life”! Follow George Bailey as he tries to make a life for himself and his family in Bedford Falls. Meet the townsfolk who George helps at his own expense and Clarence, the guardian angel who tries to show Geroge his worth. Enjoy the 1946 film on the big screen!
Have you ever wondered what exactly a Building and Loan was? Before the film, join us for a short lecture on the fascinating history of mutual self-help organizations that allowed everyday people to purchase homes. Learn how these community owned associations helped keep the housing market afloat during the Great Depression and why they were such a threat to business men like Mr. Potter.
Holiday treats and hot beverages will be provided!
