Street-Sachs Family Film Show!!!!!!!!!!
Film screening begins with a selection of archival
snips of an educational film on the weather to cine poems in full blossom, Maya
and Noa Street-Sachs, ages 13 and 11, and their
parents, Brooklyn filmmakers Mark Street and Lynne Sachs, glean audio-visual
crops from the dust of their fertile and fallow imaginations. In this avalanche
of visual ruminations on nature's topsy-turvy shakeup of our lives, the
Street-Sachs family ponders a city child's tentative excavation of the urban
forest, Staten Island star gazing, and the
great American deluge of the 21st Century (so far). From an early garden dance tour-de-force by
avant-garde film's grand-dame Maya Deren to a 1968
political manifesto dressed in visual whimsy, these movies may not be very well
known but they are sure to entertain any adventurous 1 to 100 year old child.
Agricultural relics and small works of fall farm-cycle literature provided free
to tonight's garden audience.
As the day tumbles into night (come to the garden to
watch the ultimate mother nature movie "Sunset on
the Lower EastSide")
we will hurl the following cine-shorts onto the screen. The first part of the program will be a
series of extraordinary works from the 1940's and 60's from the collection of
the Film-Makers Cooperative. The second part will include recent parent-child
cine-collaborations by Lynne, Mark, Maya and Noa. Come join us for the fresh air and the fresh
films!

MIDDLE COLLEGIATE CHURCH

New York, N.Y. 10003
http://www.middlechurch.org
Join us for a "Night of New Orleans" to enjoy
authentic Creole cuisine and jazz music and to view the New
York premier of Hope in New
Orleans, a documentary featuring the words, thoughts,
and dreams of six high school students about real change in the aftermath of
Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. This is a fundraiser to benefit the All Healers
Mental Health Alliance in sponsorship of a gathering of Gulf
Coast clergy and mental health
clinicians for some time of respite, spiritual renewal, and professional
development in New York City
in the Winter of 2009. This event is Middle Church's
commemoration of the third anniversary of the storms as part of Just Rebuilding
of the Gulf Coast Program.
What: Dinner, Music, and Documentary
Date: Saturday, September 6, 2008 7-10:30 PM
RSVP:
http://nightofneworleansatmiddle.eventbrite.com/
About the documentary:
HOPE IN NEW ORLEANS is the story
of two groups of teenagers. One group
uprooted, their story exposed through the chaos of Hurricane Katrina; the other
solidly planted in New York City.
Kenny, Raven, Kirsten and Debbie attend a struggling high school in the 9th
Ward. They tell their stories of life interrupted. New
York teenagers, Clare and Savanna, travel to New
Orleans to learn the stories behind the media attention and invite
the New Orleans teens to New York City. What follows is a life
altering experience of connection, understanding and real change.

The Lower East Side
has always been a major community in the art form of
jazz. With many greats like Charlie Parker
and Charles Mingus living in the
neighborhood-and the list goes on and on- and clubs
like slugs where Sun Ra
had a long residency this neighborhood has
been central to jazz perhaps
