A new book from a local author is inviting readers to step inside the mysterious Larder Theatre, if they dare.

Larder Lake author Terina Wnuk’s Colourful Secrets: The Larder Theatre centres on Emily Lynn, a celebrated actress who was preparing for the role of her career in the autumn of 1947.

Opening night arrived. The audience was seated and the orchestra was ready. But Emily never made it to the stage.

Decades later, her belongings remain scattered throughout the theatre, waiting to be discovered, giving readers a mystery to explore as they make their way through the book.

And now you can pick up a signed copy close to home.

The Larder Lake Co-op is carrying signed copies of Colourful Secrets: The Larder Theatre, giving local readers a chance to support a local writer while discovering the secrets hidden inside the theatre.

Copies are available now at the Co-op

Local young filmmakers are getting their own red carpet moment later this month.

The Temiskaming Art Gallery is bringing films created through its J.A.C. Movie Magic program to the big screen at Empire Cinema Twins in New Liskeard on Monday, September 21.

Doors open at 6 p.m., with the movies beginning at 6:30 p.m. The evening will feature the J.A.C. participants' short films, complete with a red carpet premiere to celebrate their work.

The young filmmakers won't be the only ones on the screen. The DreamWorks animated movie Dog Man will also be shown as part of the evening.

Admission is $10 at the door, with proceeds supporting the Temiskaming Art Gallery. The event is sponsored by Clean Scene Inc.

It's a chance for families and friends to see what these young creators have made and give them the full movie-premiere experience.

The Ontario Clean Water Agency will conduct routine flushing of Temagami’s municipal water system, with revised dates of September 21 to 25 for Temagami South and September 28 to October 2 for Temagami North.

Residents may experience temporary water discolouration, rust or sediment, and reduced water pressure during the work. Once flushing is complete, run a cold-water tap with the aerator removed until the water runs clear.
