Enjoy Community Night Under The Stars BY CATHY MOLITORIS
When was the last time you went to a drive-in movie? You can experience a taste of that nostalgia in Manheim at the Under the Stars Community Night. The event will be held on Saturday, Sept. 17, beginning at 6:30 p.m. in the courtyard behind the Brick House Café, 60 N. Main St.
This is no ordinary drive-in movie, however. You’ll have to use your imagination and your creativity. Children are invited to make box cars at the event to sit in while enjoying the movie, said Heather Lindsey, owner and artist of Creative Inspirationz Gallery, who is organizing the event with Brick House manager Christa Neville and owner Dave Reist. “Luca” will be See Community pg 3

hen she’s not at her day job as community relations coordinator for Manheim Community Library, Jes Wagner loves to get creative. Now she’s taking her passion for art and using it to raise funds for the library. A Paint and Sip fundraiser for Manheim Community Library will be held on Tuesday, Oct. 18, from 7 to 9 p.m. at Glasshouse Wineworks, 8 S. Charlotte St., Manheim. The evening will feature the opportunity for each participant to make a wall-worthy painting while enjoying snacks and a glass of wine. “We were thinking of fundraising ideas, because the library is always looking for support, and this seemed like a fun way to raise funds,” Wagner noted. “I’m planning on guiding people through the art project, with step-by-step instruction.”
earlier this summer, said she has plans for other fundraising events throughout the coming year. She noted that she’s grateful to Glasshouse Wineworks for hosting the event, and she emphasized that the event will not only raise funds for the library but will also encourage people to enjoy a local small business. Glasshouse Wineworks will have its full bar open for patrons to purchase additional drinks during the event if they choose to. “I think this is going to be a really cool time to come out, support the library and support a small business at the same time,” Wagner said. “It’s going to be a fun night.” For more information on the Paint and Sip fundraiser or to purchase tickets, visit https:// manheimlibrary.org/paintandsip.

Wagner has created a design of marigolds springing from the pages of an open book, and each participant will create an 8-by-10-inch canvas of the painting. “I think it’s going to be really neat to work with everyone as they complete this project,” she stated. Although this will be Wagner’s first time leading a guided painting session for the public, she plans to do a practice run at a library staff meeting later this month. “I’ve been doing art my whole life,” Wagner stated, noting that she especially enjoys painting, drawing and coffee art, where she paints with coffee. “Art is an outlet for me. It’s going to be such a fun night to be able to bring together two things I love - art and the library.” Proceeds from the Paint and Sip night will go toward operating expenses of the library.
