Bidding on work in the WFF “Visions” show will end promptly at 5:30 p.m. on Saturday, March 29th.
The Women’s Film Festival will be holding a closing party for its very successful 2008 fundraiser on Saturday, March 29th from 5:00 to 7:30 at the Hooker-Dunham Theater & Gallery. This year, for the first time, the festival will screen the Best of the Fest at its closing event. This year’s winning film is “Time to Die.”
If you missed “Time to Die” first time around you have another chance to catch this wonderful film about a Polish matriarch, a film one festival-goer lauded as “a beautiful film on every level”. A majority of those who viewed it gave it the highest “Wow” rating.
In a virtual dead-heat with “Time to Die” was “Run Granny Run”, a film about 94 year-old Doris Haddock’s run for a U.S. Senate seat from New Hampshire. A close third was “A Walk to Beautiful.”
“Run Granny Run” is available at First Run Video, a festival sponsor, which now has a WFF section.
The admission price for the screening is $8.00, and is an extension of the fundraising effort for the Women’s Crisis Center. Admission also includes hearty refreshments, a musical interlude by Leah Stuart, and the opportunity to place a final bid on the object of your desire in “Visions”, the silent auction art exhibit that is a conjoined event with the Women’s Film Festival. Fifty or one hundred percent (50% or 100%) of auction proceeds, at the artists’ discretion, goes to the Crisis Center. Refreshments and bidding are free and open to the public.
The Hooker-Dunham Gallery is open from 12-2 every day leading up to Saturday’s closing party.
