Workshop activities and screenings will take place outdoors with 2-meter spacing required between individuals. Please bring a mask; we will have some on hand if you forget. Disposable vinyl gloves and hand sanitizer provided. We are unable to serve refreshments so please provide your own snack if you’d like something to eat or drink during the workshop. Thanks for your cooperation in helping to keep everyone healthy!

Thanks to support from the American Association of Retired People, EPFC will be working with local elders this fall to create stories that celebrate their beautiful, powerful and inspiring lives. Stay tuned for free outdoor and online screenings coming your way in December!

This week we celebrate our Echo Park Film Center’s Amazing Elders with an image of one of EPFC’s very first Seniors Filmmaking Workshops, facilitated by EPFC Co-Founder Ken Fountain (far right). Yes, that is a Dennis Kucinich For President T-shirt and yes, Ellen is still fighting for people’s politics and social justice!

This week, we celebrate the power of cinema to unite, inspire and comfort us, even in the darkest of times. Join as we welcome LA Filmforum’s Adam Hyman for Ism Ism Ism: Experimental Cinema In Latin America / Ismo Ismo Ismo: Cine Experimental en América Latina on Thursday (8 pm), honor the life and work of our beautiful  friend Haruko Tanaka on Friday (7 – 11 pm), and spend a day in the garden on Sunday, tending the plants in the morning with Lori Snyder (10 – Noon), making phytograms in the afternoon (1 – 4 pm), and enjoying a special international women’s day favorite in the evening for Dinner and a Movie (5 – 7 pm). Events at Moberly Fieldhouse are always free and always all-ages. Hug someone you love today!
