If this is Spring, then sign me up – am loving the beautiful weather we’ve been having these past few days!  As you’ll all know by now, as the weather improves, the calendar fills up, so here is the latest news on events in Bermuda:

As part of the Historical Heartbeats Lecture Series, there will be a film night at Bermuda National Library on Thursday, March 12th.

From 6pm, there will be a screening of Bermuda and World War II (Part IV) from Brendan Hollis’ About Bermuda series. This is the final chapter of the ministries which detailed Bermuda’s involvement in the Second World War. The events on the island during those years as well as Bermuda’s contribution to the war effort are all recorded in this historically important series.

This film will be moderated by Andrew Bermingham, who will be on hand to answer questions.

This event is free to the public.
