The Grand Cinema is proud to present two screenings of GROWING CITIES, a new documentary that examines the role of urban farming in America and asks how much power it has to revitalize our cities and change the way we eat.
Both screenings will be followed by discussions led by local leaders from the government, higher education, and non-profit sectors who work in and around urban farming and sustainability.
Saturday, November 15 at 2pm
Post-film discussion will be led Scott Morgan (Director of Sustainability, The Evergreen State College), Stacy Carkonen (Executive Director, Tacoma Farmers Markets), Kristin Lynett (Environmental Policy & Sustainability Manager, City of Tacoma), and Scott Heller (Board Chair, Tacoma Urban Land Trust).
Thursday, Nov 20 at 6:45pm
Post-film discussion will be led by Ryan Dicks (Manager of Sustainability, Pierce County) and Micaela Cooley (Urban Agriculture Education & Outreach Coordinator, Pierce Conservation District).
Tickets are currently available at The Grand Cinema Box Office and will be on sale online at www.GrandCinema.com beginning on November 10th.
