The Pierce Sears Collection of Rockport Movies of the 30’s, 40’s and 50’s

Join us on Tuesday, June 10th @ 7pm for a FREE program at the Rockport Public Library.

Pierce Sears was owner and manager of Twin Lights Beverages. One of his hobbies was to shoot movies of goings on around Rockport. His collection is now in the hands of a film archivist and local resident Phil Hopkins. Phil has edited most of Pierce’s work and will present a selection of Sears’ movies at the Rockport Library on June 10.

Refreshments will be served!
