MUSE film series returning for a new season
No titles have been revealed yet, but this is a festival that always sells out
The Peterborough Museum and Archives is busy planning the 2020 winter and spring season for MUSE International Fine Films, a popular film festival and fundraiser.
MUSE has been running for more than 20 years and is a partnership between the museum and the Toronto International Film Festival Circuit Group.
The series features films from previous TIFF seasons. Muse selections from last season included “If You Could Read My Mind,” a documentary about Canadian icon Gordon Lightfoot.
Although none of the films for the new season have been confirmed, the passes always sell out early. Screening dates are set for Jan. 13 and 27, Feb. 10 and 24, March 9 and 30, and April 6 and 20.
Each film has showings at 4 and 9 p.m. at Galaxy Theatres, 320 Water St.
Series passes for MUSE will be available starting Dec. 9 at 9:30 a.m.
Seasons passes cost $115.50, available online at the Peterborough Memorial Centre box office website www.memorialcentre.ca, phone 705-743-3561, or in person at the box office, 151 Lansdowne St. W.
Individual tickets for one film are only available as rush tickets and sold 10 minutes before each screening.
Rush tickets are $15 each on a cash-only basis, available at the
MUSE Fine Films courtesy desk in the Galaxy Cinemas lobby.
The Artisan Fair
The Artisan Fair has one more event before Christmas, slated for Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Mark Street United Church, 90 Hunter St. E. Admission is free.
The artists, artisans and crafters are local and will have unique, handcrafted items for sale.

The exhibit is on loan from the
Lake of the Woods museum. Admission is by donation. You can find the museum at 300
