Curated by Julia Yezbick andBen Gaydos
Mothlight Microcinema is not going anywhere, but we (Ben and Julia) are moving. Please join us for the final screening in our loft for an evening of films that highlight the moving body in space. This evening's program will feature Norman McLaren's breathtaking Pax de Deux on 16mm, shorts by experimental diva, Maya Deren, and more!
And, in a special farewell to our space, please stay after the screenings to cut a rug! We look forward to seeing you there! This event is free and open to all.
