ENCORE is a mem- ber-run organization for ages 50 and older that operates under Clatsop Community College. ENCORE offers short-term courses and activ- ities for members as well as networking opportunities. You might also take classes on the philosophy of different religions, or look behind the curtains of the local seafood industry (with field trips), or explore the mythologies of ancient cul- tures through comparative literature. If you lean toward visual art, then a class in watercol- or painting or a course in shading and coloring with pencils might be for you; ENCORE offers that too. There’s even a course on “The Aging Brain,” a condi- tion that ENCORE’s lively classes might help slow down. There’s also a class on aging gracefully. If you are not a mem- ber, come to any class that interests you. You can attend two classes as a guest before becoming a member. Pre- registration is only required for the AARP Smart Driving course in March. Winter classes run from Jan. 16 through March 10. For more information, visit ENCORElearn.org ASTORIA — The Astoria International Film Festival will present two films in its annual Winter Film Series. The first film, “DAR HE: The Lynching of Emmett Till,” will be screened at 2 p.m. Sun- day, Jan. 15 at the Liberty Theatre, located at 1203 Commercial St. Tickets cost $5. Presented as a tribute to Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday, the documentary “DAR HE: The Lynching of Emmett Till” tells the true story of a hate crime that changed America. The film is crafted from the public record: a transfix- ing, true dramatization of the historic interviews and events surrounding the murder that became a lightning rod for moral outrage and pivotal in inspiring a generation of young people to commit to social change in the 1950s. Directed by Rob Under- hill, the film was adapted from the acclaimed one- man play “Dar He: The Story of Emmett Till,” which was written and per- formed by Mike Wiley. In the play and the film, Wi- ley plays every character. The second film in the Winter Film Series, a tribute to Robert Red- ford, who turns 80 this year, will be the 1967 film “Barefoot in the Park.” The film will be screened at 2 p.m. Feb. 5 at the Liberty Theatre.
