The West Kootenay Eco-Society Presents...

What a Way to go...film screening.  A documentary about the global crisis and the things within our culture that keep us feeling falsely secure or powerless to act.

Admission by Donation

The Vancouver International Mountain Film Festival concluded its 11th year on March 1, 2008 by announcing its award-winning films and then sending them out on the road to communities across Canada. The tour, entitled the VIMFF's Best of the Fest will screen films in Nelson at Capitol Theatre, Thursday June 19 at 7:30 pm and in Rossland Saturday June 21st for a Solstice showing.

The art show will take place in Martine Bédard and Andy Holme's home and garden at 1930 Monte Christo, Rossland. There will be wine and appetizers, a raffle to win a painting of your choice,
and lots of art to look at!

This year, the proceeds will go towards a street theatre project in Brazil and an art therapy project for families in the West Kootenays. We also envision a project in an orphanage in Bolivia in the next year.
