ROCKLAND — On Friday, June 6, the Farnsworth Art Museum and the Strand Theatre will present Seymour: an Introduction as the monthly First Friday Film. The screening will take place at 8 p.m. at the Strand, 345 Main St., following the art walk.

The film, starring Ethan Hawke and Seymour Bernstein and directed by Hawke, focuses on Seymour Bernstein, a virtuoso pianist, veteran New Yorker and true original who gave up a successful concert career to teach music. In this wonderfully warm, witty and intimate tribute from his friend Hawke, Bernstein shares unforgettable stories from his remarkable life and eye-opening words of wisdom, as well as insightful reflections on art, creativity and the search for fulfillment.

First Friday Films is collaboration between the Farnsworth Art Museum and the Strand Theatre, presented on the first Friday of the month. The films focus on artists and the visual arts, with a brief discussion following the screening. Tickets are $8.50, $7.50 for museum members, and are for sale at the Strand box office prior to the screening.
