Newtown Institutions Share A Special Connection

The Newtown Theatre, the nation's oldest continuously operating movie theatre, has been a gathering place for generations. Under the leadership of Executive Director Andrew Smith, it has transformed into a vibrant cultural hub, hosting thousands each month for films, concerts, and performances.

Pickering Manor, a cornerstone of care in Bucks County for over 60 years, also embodies the spirit of community. Offering a full continuum of care, Pickering has provided a home for Newtown and beyond, ensuring compassionate, high-quality service. Led by CEO David Woodhead, Pickering Manor continues to evolve to meet the needs of the community.

Sips N' Suds Fundraiser

And speaking of bringing people together, on Thursday, Nov. 14 Pickering Manor will host its annual Sips n' Suds fundraiser at Rafters in Newtown. The evening will feature wine, distillery and craft beer tastings, a VIP Philly-themed tailgate menu (Go Birds!), a silent auction, music, and dancing.

A highlight of the event will be the presentation of the Sidney T. Yates Award to Andrew Smith. The award honors individuals who have made significant contributions to both Pickering Manor and Newtown.
