People who create are inspirations to us all. But what inspires them? Find out at Rivertown Film’s Inspired! on Friday, April 21. Now that Rivertown Film is back to presenting live screenings, we hope you will support our future by attending our signature fundraising event.
On April 21, fifteen local artists in varied disciplines share the sources of their inspiration, each using ten slides and twenty seconds per slide to explain them. Join us for a fast-paced night of creativity and enjoy the many ways that artists find inspiration. The program starts at 8:00, but arrive early for complementary hors d’oeuvres prepared with your health and safety in mind, and to give yourself time to look over our silent auction items and raffles. A second round of food and beverages will be available when the Inspired! performers have finished. Thank you to our food donors, listed here soon!
Tickets to this unique, entertaining, and enlightening evening are $35 general admission and $25 for Rivertown Film Members. Light refreshments will be served and wine will be available for a small contribution, and there will be an opportunity to mingle with the artists before and after the presentations. Tickets are limited and are sure to go quickly.
The Community Covid 19 level remains low in Rockland County, and masks are not required but you are welcome to wear them.
