Look for the sky over downtown San Jose to light up again this July 4.

An estimated 80,000 swarmed to the city center last year to watch the holiday fireworks display, a one-time deal sponsored by the Rotary Club of San Jose to celebrate its 100th birthday. It generated such great response — not a huge surprise given downtown had lacked a fireworks show since 2008 — that the club decided an encore performance was warranted.

Jack Wimberly, chairman of the committee working on the fireworks, and Carl Salas, who pushed to bring the show back last year when he was the club’s president, said Wednesday they were in the process of lining up sponsors to cover the costs. And their hope is to figure out a funding mechanism that will make the show sustainable for future years, too.

More details will be announced later in the spring, but get your “oohs” and “aahs” ready.

The movies being shown at the county government center’s Isaac Newton Senter auditorium are “A Year in the Clouds,” a 2011 documentary set in a remote village in Taiwan, and “Touch of the Light,” a 2012 drama about a blind Taiwanese piano student. The event begins at 10 a.m., with a light lunch served between films. Tickets are $10 and can be purchased in advance by calling 408-299-5115.

WATCH AND LEARN: First 5 Santa Clara County and the Health Trust are partnering up on a screening of “Sweet Revenge: Turning the Tables on Processed Food” on Jan. 29 that’ll feature a live question-and-answer session with Dr. Robert Lustig, a UC-San Francisco pediatric endocrinologist and author of “Fat Chance: Beating the Odds Against Sugar, Processed Food, Obesity and Disease.”
