Meaningful Movies Ballard *RSVP appreciated, not required
Thurs Sept 18, 6 pm - 8:30 pm at the Center for Spiritual Living Ballard
Every 3rd Thursday we will be screening a documentary related to sustainability at the Center for Spiritual Living Ballard. In September we will be showing Free For All: The Public Library.
Free for All: The Public Library tells the story of the quiet revolutionaries who made a simple idea happen. From the pioneering women behind the "Free Library movement" to today's librarians who service the public despite working in a contentious age of closures and book bans, meet those who created a civic institution where everything is free and the doors are open to all.
Sustainable Ballard and Center for Spiritual Living Ballard partner with the Meaningful Movies Project to present documentaries in our neighborhood.
To stay informed about future screenings, you can subscribe to our newsletter (sent out about once every three weeks). We'd love to hear what you want to see! What topics do you want to explore? Do you have a specific movie to recommend? To provide input, or if you are interested in volunteering with Meaningful Movies Ballard, please e-mail info@sustainableballard.org
The Meaningful Movies Project is a non-profit organization that assists neighborhoods, groups and individuals organize, educate and advocate using the power of documentary film and relevant conversation to build positive and meaningful community and a more just and peaceful world.
Film screenings are always followed by some form of discussion or audience engagement, where education and opportunities for involvement or advocacy are made available. In addition, we rely on, and benefit from one another’s knowledge and experience in an environment that fosters a strong undercurrent of community building.
Events are all-volunteer organized and run. They are always open to the public at no cost, and rely on donations from attendees to remain sustainable. The events are “owned” by the community.
