Capital District Genealogy Society:  “Cradle of the Union”

Saturday, March 23, at 1 p.m.

The City of Albany has 800 streets, and thus as many street names. In this program, Erik Schlimmer takes audiences on a virtual tour of street names, weaving among war heroes, criminals, founding fathers, and Dutch settlers. This presentation is based on his recently-released book, “Cradle of the Union: A Street by Street History of New York’s Capital City.”

Free Movie Monday: “A Star is Born”

Monday, March 25, 2 p.m. and 6 p.m.

Enjoy a film on the big screen in the Stedman Room — bring a sweater in case it’s chilly.

In “A Star is Born,” starring Lady Gaga, Bradley Cooper, and Sam Elliot, a musician helps a young singer find fame, even as age and alcoholism send his own career into a downward spiral. Rated: R. Runtime: 2 hours, 16 minutes.

Registration is required for the showing you would like to attend: online or 518-810-0314.

TED Talk Discussion Group: Clever Blooms

March 28 at 6:30 p.m.

Watch and discuss three TED talks that reveal the fascinating secret world of pollination and plant intelligence. There’s more going on than the beauty that meets the eye.

Registration is required: online or call 518-810-0314.

Creating a Wise Long Term Care Plan

Friday, March 29, at 4:15 to 5:45 p.m.

You’ve worked hard, and have accumulated money and assets. You hope you don’t need expensive extended care in the future, but, what if you do? Come explore planning ideas to fit your mindset and your values.
Presented by Frank Finch, Principal of Life Stages Financial Group.

Registration is required: online or call 5180-810-0314.
