Current Events and Updates
February News and Events
This week's Family Friendly Night at NoRa is going to be a quiet affair - actually a silent one.
We will be showing in The Library the Charlie Chaplin classice "The Kid" on Friday February 20th.
Movie will start about 5:30 pm. There is no cost to watch the movie.
For those attending, there will be discounts on drinks.
Popcorn available to purchase as well (while supplies last).
Loyalty Program Update
Effective immediately, we have made some improvements to our loyalty program.
- Spend points to reduce your bill for any item at NoRa or Dog-Eared Books
- Spend 10 points and get $1 off
- You may spend in increments of 10 points as much as you want to reduce your overall bill.
- Points are accrued and can be redeemed at both NoRa and Dog-Eared Books.
- Points can be used on any item sold at NoRa or Dog-Eared
NOTE: We will be phasing out in March the old rewards requiring a threshold of points and only available on specific items.
NoRa is reintroducing our evening event-focused initiative to give you another reason to get out of your house and visit NoRa's Community House.

Tuesdays are Mahjong Night
5 pm to 7:30 pm in The Library at NoRa
[a Community House initiative]
We are opening up The Library every Tuesday evening to anybody looking for a place to play mahjong. While we aren't hosting the games ourselves, we hope you will take advantage to bring your group to play or perhaps meet others and join their group.
NOTE: This event will be cancelled when The Library is reserved for a private event
Silent Book Club
First and third Thursdays each month
6 - 7:30 pm in The Library at NoRa
[part of NoRa's Community House initiative]
Join us on the first and third Thursdays each month in The Library at NoRa for Silent Book Club. A time for people to gather together but read separately in a warm, friendly and quiet space.
Please plan to arrive between 6 and 6:30 pm to settle in. We will be closing the doors at 6:30 to ensure as quiet a space as possible between 6:30 and 7:30.
[CANCELLED ON 2/12/26 DUE TO PRIVATE EVENT]
Silent Writers Club
Second and fourth Thursdays of each month
5 pm to 8 pm in The Library
[Part of NoRa's Community House Initiative]
Whether a fledgling, struggling or established writer, NoRa invites you to come and find your creative spot in our Library every second and fourth Thursday of the month.
For those of us who need a dedicated time and place, NoRa will supply a quiet, comfortable spot and you bring the writing materials and your passion. This is not a writers' workshop although if enough interest, we can look at forming a periodic meeting time to help each other and share ideas.
No cost for this. Just show up and write.
