In brief: Tull Family Theater holiday programming, online art auction and more in Sewickley

Tull Family Theater holiday programming

This holiday season, as Hollywood studios continue to postpone new major releases, The Tull Family Theater is reaching back for perennial favorites; films that bring joy, hope and memories of being with loved ones.

Films include “Casablanca,” “Doctor Zhivago,” “Babette’s Feast,” “Meet Me in St. Louis,” “Elf,” “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation,” “Last Holiday,” “Love Actually,” “White Christmas,” “It’s A Wonderful Life” and “A Christmas Story.”

“Casablanca” began showing Oct. 30. Dates for the other titles will be released weekly. For the latest information and schedules, visit thetullfamilytheater.org.

Pop-up shop

Kid’s Closet Connection is hosting a holiday sales event through Nov. 8 at Western Allegheny Community Library, 181 Bateman Road in Oakdale. Parking is free, masks are required and cash and credit cards are accepted. For more information, visit kidscloset.biz/swpittsburgh.

Greater Pittsburgh Business Connection

The Greater Pittsburgh Business Connection, a referral group of business professionals, will meet at the Eat’n Park on Route 60 in Robinson Township for breakfast from 7:15 to 8:30 a.m. Nov. 11. Speakers are Barbara DeJohn of Colonial Life and Rich Coyner of Minuteman Press. For details, visit www.gpbc-pgh.org or call 412-364-6446, ext. 302.

Fall leaf collection

Sewickley’s fall leaf collection program will continue through Nov. 20, weather permitting.

Leaves are to be placed along the street line and not in the street. Placing leaves in the street can cause sewer backup and entice children to play in the leaves on the street, which creates a dangerous situation.

Brush, grass and shrubbery clippings are not to be mixed with leaves. Grass and shrubbery clippings are required to be bagged for weekly garbage collection. Branches must be cut to four-foot lengths and bundled; Waste Management, the borough’s waste collection hauler, will not pick up branches unless this is done. The borough will only pick up branches after a storm. Leaves that are not put out for collection during this time will have to be bagged for regular waste pick up.

Jewish Center virtual programs

BSJC will host all programs through Zoom until further notice. Upcoming programs include:

Todd DePastino of The Veterans Breakfast Club presents “History of Hobos,” 7 p.m. Nov. 12.

BSJC Movie Club discusses “Dancing in Jaffa,” 8 p.m. Nov. 15.

Torah Yoga and Meditation class, 8:45 a.m. Nov. 21.

Email BethSamuel Office@comcast.net for more information or Zoom login links.
