Please join us for Family Movie Night on Wednesday, October 21, 2026 from 6:00-8:00pm. We will be showing a film about The Sheep Detectives featured in and based on the book, Three Bags Full, by Leonie Swann. The film stars Hugh Jackman and Emma Thompson and the voices of Patrick Stewart, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and Regina Hall.

“In this witty new breed of mystery, George is a shepherd who reads detective novels to his beloved sheep every night, assuming they can't possibly understand. But when a mysterious incident disrupts life on the farm, the sheep realize they must become the detectives. As they follow the clues and investigate human suspects, they prove that even sheep can be brilliant crime-solvers.”

Now's the time! Stop by the Malden Public Library on Tuesday, Oct. 13 from 10am-11am to learn about how to get started on your personal health care plan.
Who is this program for? Any adults! A Health Care Proxy and Personal Directive are documents that determine a loved one who can make medical decisions for you in the event that you can't, and describe what kind of care you do and don't want. These may seem a little daunting at first, which is why a trained professional from Honoring Choices Massachusetts will be leading a presentation and answering questions on the process. You can register at bit.ly/mpl-plan or by calling 781-324-0218. If you have questions, contact Katie at [email protected].
