This year Lewes in Bloom funded the purchase of 26\,931 tulip and 3\,950 spring bulbs that were planted in fall 2021 by members of Lewes in Bloom.\nThe timing of the tulips’ appearance is an inexact science and either milder or colder weather in advance of the event dates can increase the probability that the dates of the celebration may not exactly coincide with the tulips blooming!

SUMMARY:The Lion\, the Witch\, and the Wardrobe\, a live production at Milton Theatre
DESCRIPTION:A Milton Student Mainstage Production of C.S. Lewis’s The Lion\, the Witch and the Wardrobe Dramatized by Joseph Robinette.\n \n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\nSEATING INFORMATION:\nModified seating due to balcony construction (tables temporarily not available)\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\nParents and children familiar with the series\, or discovering it for the first time\, will love this dazzling play that champions honesty\, bravery\, and goodness.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout The Lion\, the Witch and the Wardrobe\nThis dramatization of C.S. Lewis’ classic work faithfully recreates the magic and mystery of Aslan\, the great lion\, his struggle with the White Witch\, and the adventures of four children who inadvertently wander from an old wardrobe into the exciting\, never-to-be-forgotten Narnia. The intense action features chases\, duels and escapes as the witch is determined to keep Narnia in her possession and to end the reign of Aslan. All the memorable episodes from the story are represented in this exciting dramatization: the temptation of Edmund by the witch\, the slaying of the evil wolf by Peter\, the witnessing of Aslan’s resurrection by Susan and Lucy\, the crowing of the four new rulers of Narnia\, and more. The supporting characters are also here: the unicorn\, the centaur and other forest animals\, along with Father Christmas\, Mr. and Mrs. Beaver and Tumnus the Faun. This story of love\, faith\, courage and giving\, with its triumph of good over evil\, is a true celebration of life. \nThis play is a great way to spark conversations about family\, and especially the bond siblings have with one another. Throughout the show\, the Pevensies have to work through conflicts and ultimately learn to stick up for each other and love each other no matter what. This show is also a great way to bring up conversations about forgiveness. Edmund’s family forgives him even after he brings danger to them through his lies and betrayal. They also realize that they contributed to Edmund’s actions by treating him unkindly. Ultimately\, Edmund is rescued and redeemed by Aslan\, who takes Edmund’s punishment for him. Just like Edmund\, we all sometimes make mistakes and may experience consequences for them – but we are all still valuable and worthy of love. \nWe love this story because it focuses on how love is the deepest magic of all. Not only is it powerful enough to melt through ice and stone\, but it is able to defeat evil itself. We also love this story because it takes us on an adventure and uses all parts of our imagination to depict the children’s journey. By performing this story using minimal actors and sets\, we show that you don’t always need big special effects to tell a story. Storytellers can share human experiences through things as simple as a fur coat\, a hat rack\, or an umbrella. After watching this play\, we hope your family will explore some creative storytelling on your own! \nTHURSDAY TICKETS \nFRIDAY TICKETS \nSATURDAY TICKETS \n\n\n\nAbout the Milton Theatre\nOfficial Website | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram \nThe historic Milton Theatre is a uniquely diverse venue where you will find the best local\, regional\, national\, and international talent. Free municipal and on-street parking are available. Full bar and light food options available. This facility is fully accessible.

SUMMARY:The Fellowship of the Book Club\, Rehoboth Library
DESCRIPTION:As we continue our ongoing “Fellowship of the Walk” challenge\, join us for a biweekly\, chapter-by-chapter discussion of J.R.R.

Keep track of how many miles you walk each day and see if you can achieve a total of 1\,779- the same amount that it took Frodo and Sam to travel from the Shire to Mordor in J.R.R.

SUMMARY:Spanish Conversation Group\, Lewes Library
DESCRIPTION:“Join Spanish speakers 18+ to improve your Spanish-speaking skills. \nBasic Spanish conversational ability is required. \nNOTE: this is not a traditional class — there is no Spanish teacher. Instead\, it is a group of people who already speak some Spanish\, or who have studied some Spanish\, or who are now taking some classes elsewhere. Members include retirees\, college students\, and others who have a range of Spanish speaking abilities. Members of the group make suggestions as to what we might do in future classes. There is usually a ‘homework’ assignment preparing each person to talk in Spanish for 2 to 3 minutes to the group. There are icebreakers\, games\, and invited guests who speak on various topics. Each week is different. Nearly all of the discussions are in Spanish. The group is very informal\, friendly and there is no pressure to participate.” \nThursdays | 2:00 PM Eastern Time | Hybrid (Online and In-person)\n \n  \nAll copy and pics from the website: Lewes Library

Holmes built his murder castle in Chicago\, but he met the hangman in Philadelphia. Al Capone served his first prison sentence here. The real-life killers who inspired HBO’s Boardwalk Empire lived and died here. America’s first bank robbery was pulled off here in 1798. The country’s first kidnapping for ransom came off without a hitch in 1874. A South Philadelphia man hatched the largest mass murder plot in U.S. history in the 1930s. His partners in crime were unhappy housewives. Catholics and Protestants aimed cannon at each other in city streets in 1844. Civil rights hero Octavius V. Catto was gunned down on South Street in 1871. Take a walk with us through city history. Mix in murderous maids\, bumbling burglars\, and unflinching local heroes and you have True Crime Philadelphia. \nKathryn Canavan began her career as a crime reporter. To get a story\, she has reported at gunpoint\, lived with the Moonies\, negotiated with a killer and joined Tug McGraw in the Phillies dugout. She eventually worked as reporter or editor in four states. Her freelance writing has been published in USA Today\, the Philadelphia Inquirer\, History News Network\, and Prevention magazine. She was named a National Health Journalism Fellow at the University of Southern California’s Annenberg School of Communications and Journalism in 2011. Her fellowship project\, “No Child Allowed Outside\,” chronicled the health effects of gun violence on young children. She is a 2017 Individual Artist Fellow of Delaware Division of the Arts\, awarded the Established Professional Award for Creative Nonfiction. \nCopies of the book will be available for sale and there will be a book signing immediately following the event.
