reflect our mysterious modern surroundings, be they man-made or natural, in 
the form of composition.

@ 7pm

Join us for our April Queer Movie Night! We will be watching Shortbus. 

Shortbus is a 2006 comedy-drama film written and directed by John Cameron 
Mitchell. The plot revolves around a sexually diverse ensemble of emotionally 
challenged characters trying desperately to connect in New York City. The 
characters converge in a weekly Brooklyn artistic/sexual salon loosely 
inspired by various underground NYC gatherings that took place in the early 
2000s. According to Mitchell, the film attempts to "employ sex in new 
cinematic ways", and it includes a variety of explicit scenes of 
sexuality.SPECIAL EVENT! MOVIE SCREENING: "END:CIV" with director Frank 
Lopez, Fri April 8 @ 8:00 pm. $6

END:CIV examines our culture?s addiction to systematic violence and 
environmental exploitation, and probes the resulting epidemic of poisoned 
landscapes and shell-shocked nations. Based in part on Endgame, the 
best-selling book by Derrick Jensen, END:CIV asks: ?If your homeland was 
invaded by aliens who cut down the forests, poisoned the water and air, and 
contaminated the food supply, would you resist?? By documenting the 
resilience of the people hit hardest by war and repression, and the heroism 
of those coming forward to confront the crisis head-on, END:CIV illuminates a 
way out of this all-consuming madness and into a saner future.
