Larry Flinchpaugh will have another showing next week of “This Is Our Town,” a 1950s film about St. Joseph that he found at a garage sale and had restored.

Designed to illustrate the assets of the community, the film includes Downtown St. Joseph street scenes and documents thriving businesses of the era, such as Seitz Foods, Noma Lights and the Robidoux Hotel.

The Downtown Library and the Joyce Raye Patterson Senior Citzens Center will host this event at 1:30 p.m. Wednesday at the senior center’s multipurpose room. Support is underwritten by the St. Joseph Public Library Foundation.

The partnership allows the free program to be open to all ages. Refreshments will be served. Contact Debbie Gentry at 236-2107 or Ann Salanky at 271-4666 for more information.
