Annual Women and Filmmakers’ Brunch
RA
Sunday, October 16 H U.S. Navy Memorial Museum and Theater H Brunch at 11 a.m. H Screening of Hannah and the Hasbian at 1 p.m.
This annual tradition of brunch with the filmmakers was
begun back in 1999 when our dear colleague Sarah Kellogg was Co-Director of Reel Affirmations. She served as Director of the Festival through 2003 and the brunch tradition has continued going strong. Long one of the most popular special events at the festival, the Washington Post once said it was “among the most important lesbian events in the nation’s capital.” You don’t have to be a lesbian to attend; it’s open to all fans of cinema. This event offers a great gathering with filmmakers, actors and film industry professionals and the opportunity to hear about interesting behind-the-scenes aspects of inde-
pendent filmmaking. This year the event is being presented by longtime festival sponsor I. Gorman Jewelers, who will give us an informal fashion show of their incredible jeweled creations. The event is also presented by Royce Flowers, another long-time supporter of the festival with her incredible floral creations and our hospitality sponsor is the Java Shack, home of the best coffee in Arlington, VA. Only $40 per ticket for brunch and film package and $20 per ticket for film only. There is limited seating for the brunch, so be sure to buy your package tickets ASAP.
