Free Admission
RSVP here!
FRIDAY, August 18th @ 6:30 - 9:00pm
18+
•••••••
Movies and drawing go together like popcorn and seasoned salt, so join us for a back-to-back double feature of both classics and not-so-classics. Grab a sketchbook, a few friends, and your best film appreciation glasses and hang out with us! Each month will have a different movie theme and a different creative challenge with big prizes.
This month, we’re exploring the dark, fantastical worlds of animation. Gandahar, a surreal French fantasy film by Rene Laloux (of Fantastic Planet fame), depicts a peaceful world threatened by mechanical warriors from beyond time… but is all what it seems? Run Time: 1h32m, Shown in French with English Subtitles, rated PG
Angel’s Egg is directed by Mamoru Oshii (Ghost in the Shell, Urusei Yatsura) with art direction by Yoshitaka Amano. More of an animated painting than a linear narrative, the film depicts a young girl protecting a mysterious egg in a desolate, neo-gothic city. Run Time: 1h15m, Shown in Japanese with English subtitles, Not Rated
There will be snacks and drinks available for purchase at the gallery.
