Florence Green Movie- Divide in Concord
The Siuslaw News is excited to once again partner with City Lights Cinemas to host a community-screening of the film, "Divide in Concord" on December 11th. Divide in Concord is a feature-length documentary that follows the entertaining tale of banning bottled water in small town America.

Admission for the film will be FREE. Admission tickets are required, limit two per person, and available starting November 17 at: City Lights Cinemas, 1920 Highway 101.…
