Film Screening: Pens to Pictures
September 19, 2017 @ 6:30 pm - 9:00 pm
Pens to Pictures is a filmmaking collaborative that teaches and empowers incarcerated women to make their own short films, from script to screen. During its inaugural year in 2016, five films were made in partnership between women in Dayton Correctional Institution (DCI) and the Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Pennsylvania artist communities.
Join founder, Chinonye Chukwu, and two of the inaugural participants (Jamie Ochs and Beverly Fears) for a screening of the five short inaugural films on September 19 at the Athena. Please note that some of the shorts include scenes of drug use and sexual assault.
Co-sponsored with the Women’s Center; Cutler Scholars Program; the Multicultural Center; Making and Breaking the Law Theme; Center for Law, Justice & Culture; the LGBT Center; College of Fine Arts Film Division; Ebony Minds; BSCPB; Diversity Studies Certificate; Interdisciplinary Arts; Honors Tutorial College; the Multicultural Faculty In-Residence; and in partnership with the Athena Cinema.
