Clips of Faith

When: Fri., Oct. 5, 7 p.m. 2012

Clips of Faith, a traveling showcase of short films — and a beer-drinking worthy cause (it's sponsored by New Belgium Brewing) — features titles like The Canning Queen of the Desert: Classie Parker. The flim is about an NYC woman who turns a weedy, abandoned lot into a beautiful garden and teaches her community how to can fresh food. Another short on the roster is Malcolm Sangster’s action-packed ski flick, JP Auclair Street Segment (from All.I.Can.). At the event, you'll find a good selection of brews available, but try and stay sober for the screenings of possible short gems. Proceeds raised from this stop on the tour benefit the U.S. National Whitewater Center, which happens to be a nonprofit (in case you didn't know). For more information, visit www.clipsoffaith.com.
