Celebrate the Dead & Company's Sphere residency with "The Grateful Dead Movie" (1977, 2h 12m, PG).
We’re celebrating the Dead & Company’s Sphere residency with a screening of "The Grateful Dead Movie" (1977, 2h 12m, PG), streamed through Kanopy, the library’s free on-demand film service.
In October 1974, the Grateful Dead thought they might be saying fare-thee-well, but thankfully, the music never stopped. Capturing five legendary nights at Winterland Ballroom, Jerry Garcia’s directorial debut brings the magic, energy, and spirit of a Dead show to the big screen.
Directed by: Jerry Garcia.
Free & open to the public. Seating is on a first-come, first-served basis.

Originally opening in 1966 as a three-room library within the Airport Annex building, the Clark County Library moved in 1967 to a storefront. In 1971, the library moved again to its current location using deeded land from the County and with money awarded by the Max C. Fleishman Foundation. The building went on to have two remodels: one completed in 1986, and the second completed in 1994, which resulted in the three-story, 120,000-square-foot building it is today. This redesign notably included a 399-seat theater and an 80-seat black box theater/dance studio. The Library District also added the Best Buy Teen Tech Center, which provides a place for teens to explore and master new technologies and digital skills.
