SUMMARY:Two Way Street Coffee House Presents Kitty Donohoe
DESCRIPTION:Two Way Street Coffee House is Chicagoland’s most beloved folk and acoustic music venue\, presenting weekly concerts and community events for over 55 years!  The show starts at 8pm (CT) and the doors open at 7:30pm. (Suggested donation $10\, cash or Paypal).  We will also host this concert virtually.  You may access the livestream on www.twowaystreet.org\, on our Facebook page\, or on our YouTube channel. \nOn Friday\, March 20\, 2026 Two Way Street Coffee House Friday Night Concert Series presents Kitty Donohoe. \nAnn Arbor based songwriter and Michigan Emmy recipient Kitty Donohoe is not an Irish or Celtic singer\, but she clearly draws from that part of her heritage\, as well as her American roots\, as an artist. Iconic WFMT-Chicago folk dj Rich Warren calls Kitty “far above and beyond most singersongwriters.” She writes music that has been called “earthy\, luminous and compelling” (The Weekender) and she’s been praised in the press equally for her voice\, her musicality\, and her songwriting. Sing Out!\, one of the oldest and most respected folk music magazines in the industry\, says that Kitty is “ one of the rare singer-songwriters to sensuously weave words and melody into a strong and mezmerizing fabric.” \nOver the years Kitty has opened for a variety of artists\, from Doc Watson to David Bromberg\, from Bruce Cockburn to Cheryl Wheeler – and in 2008 she and sideman David Mosher took the stage at an Obama rally just before Bruce Springsteen. Already known for years for her songwriting\, Kitty’s visibility escalated to a much bigger world when she wrote a song called ‘There Are No Words’ on September 11\, 2001. In addition to the Emmy Kitty received for the song\, it’s been featured in a documentary\, which led to her singing it live at the Dedication of the Pentagon 9/11 Memorial in 2008 – an experience that she calls “profound.” \nGrowing up in a large\, creative family outside of Detroit\, Kitty started ‘making up songs’ and playing the piano at a young age\, then graduated to the guitar in high school\, when she began going to coffeehouses and open mic nights\, bringing the guitar and her own songs. When she became involved in Irish music Kitty bought a cittern (a large mandolin)\, and she still primarily plays guitar\, cittern and piano. Kitty is a solid solo performer\, and also often brings multi-instrumentalist David Mosher to her concerts\, where he backs her up with guitar\, fiddle\, mandolin\, and vocals. And although some of her originals may sound like they were written 100 years ago and others are clearly contemporary\, one thing is certain: with or without a band behind her\, Kitty’s striking voice carries it all\, delivering each song with power and emotion. \nIf you can’t join us in person\, you can still tune in virtually to catch the show!  Make your donation HERE to Kitty.  Visit www.twowaystreet.org for more information.

SUMMARY:Anderson's Bookshop Presents Matt Eicheldinger
DESCRIPTION:Matt Eicheldinger\n\nJoin Anderson’s Bookshop for an author event with Matt Eicheldinger\, to celebrate the release of When the Rain Came\, on Thursday\, March 19th at 6:00 pm in our Downers Grove store. \nEvent Format \nWe will begin checking you in approximately 30 minutes before the start time. After a presentation and Q&A with the author\, the line will form in numbered order with the following guidelines: \n\nPosed photo with your camera taken by our staff\nThere is a limit of 2 books from home to be signed (unless otherwise stated)\nThere is a limit of 1 personalization of the new book only (unless otherwise stated)\n\n  \nAll events have open seating. The “Order Line Number” on your pdf ticket is your reserved place in the signing line. You will line up to meet the author based on that number. \nIf you cannot attend\, you must pick up your book (if included with ticket) at the hosting store within 30 days of the event.  We can ship that book to you for an additional charge of $9.99; please call the store to arrange that. \nPre-registration is required for this event because space is limited. \nMore about When the Rain Came:   \nThe rain never stops. The world is drowning. Survival is everything. When the Rain Came is the first YA book in an all-new\, action-packed dystopian adventure series by New York Times bestselling author Matt Eicheldinger. \n“If we stay here\, if we keep wandering without a real plan\, we won’t last. Maybe The Hill is dangerous. But maybe it’s not. It’s the only plan we have.” \nSeventeen-year-old Aurora knows how to survive. Life in the foster system has taught her how to stay quiet\, stay smart\, and stay ready. But nothing could prepare her for this: a never-ending storm that swallows cities\, drowns forests\, and turns the world into a flooded wasteland. \nTrapped in a collapsing house with her strict prepper foster parents\, Aurora is forced to live by their rules just to stay alive. Until the day they disappear without a trace. \nAlone. Abandoned. And running out of time. \nAll Aurora has is a waterlogged scrap of paper and a name: “The Hill.” \nWith looters closing in and the floodwaters rising higher each day\, she’s left with one impossible choice—stay and wait for the storm to take her\, or risk everything on a journey through the drowned remains of the world\, to a find a place that may or not exist. \nIt’s forward or nothing. \nWith echoes of Life As We Knew It\, The Last of Us\, and Hatchet\, Aurora’s story is a gripping\, emotionally resonant survival story about resilience\, found family\, and one girl’s fight to reclaim her future in a drowning world. \nAbout the Author:  \nNew York Times and USA Today bestselling author Matt Eicheldinger wasn’t always a writer. He spent most of his childhood playing soccer\, reading comics\, and trying his best to stay out of trouble. Matt lives in Bloomington\, Minnesota with his wife and two children\, and tries to create new adventures with them whenever possible. When he’s not writing\, you can find him telling students stories in the classroom or trail running along the Minnesota River Bottoms.

SUMMARY:Tivoli Theatre - After Hours Film Society Presents The Voice of Hind Rajab
DESCRIPTION:MOVIE REVIEW\nReviewed by Nicholas Barber | BBC\nAt this year’s Venice Film Festival\, no film has been more talked about than this latest project from Tunisian director Kaouther Ben Hania\, which recounts the heart-shattering story of a six-year-old girl killed in Gaza\, and received a record 23-minute standing ovation at the festival this week.It isn’t uncommon to hear cheers or boos at the end of a film festival screening\, but when The Voice of Hind Rajab was shown to journalists and industry professionals at the Venice Film Festival on Wednesday\, some far rarer sounds were heard. People were crying. Some of them were sobbing noisily\, some were sniffling\, some had red eyes\, and almost everyone was too distraught to talk. The film is likely to prompt a similar response wherever it is shown. Later on in the day\, at the festival premiere\, it received what Deadline reported as a 23 minute-plus standing ovation\, which it suggested may be a film festival record. It is now a hot favourite to pick up Venice’s top prize\, The Golden Lion\, on Saturday\, and it is almost certain to be nominated for the Academy Award for best international feature film. \nKaouther Ben Hania\, the Tunisian director of The Voice of Hind Rajab\, is no stranger to the Oscars\, having been nominated in the best international feature category for The Man Who Sold His Skin (2020)\, and in the best documentary category for 2024’s Four Daughters. But her latest work – which numbers Brad Pitt\, Joaquin Phoenix\, Rooney Mara\, Jonathan Glazer and Alfonso Cuarón among its executive producers – will have a greater impact than anything she has done before. \nAn innovative hybrid of drama and documentary\, it recounts the heart-shattering story of Hind Rajab\, a six-year-old Palestinian girl who was killed in the Israel-Gaza war in January 2024. She was travelling one afternoon in a car in Gaza’s Tel al-Hawa neighbourhood with her aunt\, uncle and cousins when the car was fired upon\, and Hind was the only member of the family group to survive. She was then trapped for hours in the wreckage\, squeezed against the bodies of her relatives\, and hoping in vain to be rescued. \nWhat the film conveys so powerfully is the pain of wanting to change a situation which is agonisingly out of your hands\nClips of the phone conversations between the terrified girl and some Palestinian Red Crescent volunteers were circulated on social media. Now those same recordings have been used as the basis of Ben Hania’s film. Actors play the volunteers\, based on the real people involved\, in its main setting\, the offices of a Red Crescent emergency centre\, 52 miles away from Gaza. But\, as a caption explains\, Hind’s voice is the real thing. We are listening to actual phone calls made in January 2024. This means that the film has the atmosphere and structure of an immersive thriller about a feverish race against time. But the child’s voice on the crackling line turns it into something much more distressing. “Please come get me\,” she pleads. “I’m scared.” And because we are hearing Hind’s voice\, rather than that of an actress\, we have the stomach-churning illusion that she can still be saved\, even though we know that’s impossible. \nThe audio evidence of her bravery throughout her ordeal is devastating. But the volunteers’ experiences are almost unbearable\, too. Motaj Malhees is Oman\, an inexperienced young man who makes contact with Hind. Saja Kilani plays his supervisor\, who comforts the girl while holding back tears. Clara Khoury plays a counsellor who tries to keep her traumatised co-workers calm. And Amer Hlehel plays the supervisor with the nightmarish job of “co-ordination”. \nThe awful irony\, as the film depicts it\, is that the Red Crescent has an ambulance available\, just eight minutes’ drive away from where Hind is hiding. But before it can be dispatched\, the Israeli Army has to agree on a route through the rubble-strewn streets for it to follow. And as the Red Crescent can’t contact the Army directly\, negotiations have to be conducted via the Red Cross and other intermediaries. Ben Hania doesn’t make any overt political statements\, nor does she show how Hind was killed. The point is that the volunteers are too far away to see. What the film conveys so powerfully is the pain of wanting to change a situation which is agonisingly out of your hands. \nAs the minutes tick by and the pressure intensifies\, the volunteers call everyone they can think of\, try to come up with alternative plans\, and veer between supporting each other and clashing. (These contrived-sounding arguments are Ben Hania’s one obvious misjudgement – the one jarring reminder that we aren’t watching a fly-on-the-wall documentary.) But the team’s most urgent task is to keep talking to Hind. Scrap by scrap\, they tease out the details of her plight. Her class at school is called Butterfly\, she says. Her school is called A Happy Childhood. There is a tank near the car\, and it is getting closer. \nIf viewers aren’t deeply upset by this point in the film\, they will be by the end. In its final minutes\, The Voice of Hind Rajab switches completely from dramatisation to documentary\, with some new footage of Hind’s mother being interviewed\, and some home video footage of Hind herself\, playing on the beach. No other film this year will get more people talking\, or more people crying. \n\nDISCUSSION FOLLOWS EVERY FILM!\n$7.00 Members | $11.00 Non-Members\nTIVOLI THEATRE\n5021 Highland Avenue  |  Downers Grove\, IL\n630-968-0219 |  classiccinemas.com\nWe apologize—Movie Pass cannot be used for AHFS programs

SUMMARY:Orange & Brew - 4th Annual Women In Brewing Girl Scout Cookie & Beer Pairing
DESCRIPTION:Spring is almost here\, which also means it’s time for Girl Scout Cookies! And what better way to enjoy them than with some of your favorite craft beer?\nCraft beer can complement so many different types of food\, cookies included. Sweet stouts\, malty ales\, and citrusy IPAs can really accentuate the Girl Scout cookie flavors you know and love.\nWe’re taking this one step further during Women’s History Month since Girl Scouts are about building girls of courage\, confidence\, and character\, who make the world a better place. Many of those woman role models are brewing your favorite beers or working other leadership roles in local breweries\, so all of our draft lines today will come from breweries that have woman brewers or are woman owned. Mark your calendars to come join us!
