Parents did you know that the E.O. Austin Home/Historical Society Museum located on Main Street in Austin, Pennsylvania, shows classical movies to children throughout the summer vacation months?  That refreshments, including popcorn, are also provided? That the cost is FREE.

Usually the movies are shown in the early afternoon, but yesterday arrangements were made to show the movie at 10:00 a.m. and the children were shown some of the Laurel and Hardy Comedy Classics. 

After the movie the children watched the old player piano play "The Green, Green, Grass of Home.

Titles of the movies that have been shown are:
  • The Song of the South
  • I Remember Mama
  • Abbot and Costello's "Whose On First"
  • Laurel and Hardy's Comedy Classics
Each child was given an E.O. Austin Home/Historical Society wristband as a momento of their visit to the museum.

Adults are also invited to attend.

Austin, Pennsylvania, is a community of between 600 - 700 people.  It is home to the smallest public school in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.  Essentially, it is a public school in a private school setting.  Last year our school won a bronze medal for its' academic performance.

We invite those of you looking for a new place to live to think about buying one of our rundown homes, tearing it down, and building something new in its place.

Austin, Pennsylvania is known for having the second worst flood disaster in the Commonwealth, when, in 1911, our dam burst killing 78 known citizens.  The dam ruins still stand.
