🌟Silo
Director: Graham Yost
🌟Wool
Author: Hugh Howey
In a ruined and toxic landscape, within a giant underground silo hundreds of stories deep, lives a society full of regulations they believe are meant to protect them. Then Sheriff Holston, who has unwaveringly upheld the silo's rules for years, breaks the greatest taboo of all: He asks to go outside. His decision unleashes a drastic series of events. His unlikely replacement - Juliette, a mechanic with no training in law, is about to learn how badly her world is broken. The silo is about to confront what its history has only hinted about: Uprising.

Love this! We have the best community!

A recent review I wanted to share!

"Through the Paul Sawyier show your card and save event this year I took advantage of a free watercolor workshop with Delaney. I’m so glad I did and had a blast. She helped me understand shading and color theory and I am really, for once, pleased with a piece of art I’ve made. I plan to come to these each month to keep learning."

I loved being a part of September Saves with the Paul Sawyier Public Library anything to support life long education and the community I will always be willing to support! Frankfort is amazing and I treasure being in the Bluegrass state.
