Movie Theater Night: Bringing the Neighborhood Together

Fresh Perspectives Media | facebook.com/freshperspectivesmedia

Fresh Perspectives Media, in collaboration with CommUnity ArtsReach, wants to use the universal love for movies and theater as a means to bring neighborhoods together. Film can transcend entertainment and serve as a catalyst for bonding and socialization, uniting people of all backgrounds and ages. With a combination of filmmaking that takes you behind the scenes along with live performances, this project aims to showcase African American culture and history for your neighborhood.

Participants: 40 to 200 participants, depending on space.
Ages: All
Value: $1,500.00
Requirements: Please provide a church or community auditorium or building that can have a screen and projector setup. This can also be done outside as long as there is a power source for equipment. Chairs will be needed for seating if the venue doesn’t have any readily available.
