Film showings are free and open to all\, presented to foster understanding and stimulate conversation about the impact of design and beauty in our daily lives.The Architecture + Design Film Series website www.adfilmseries.org tells the history of the film series and presents film trailers for movies in this upcoming season. 118 Elliot is a modern\, fully accessible arts and educational center in downtown Brattleboro.

The film will be followed by a discussion. \n“Strength of the Storm” is an extremely powerful film that highlights the devastating impact that global climate change has had on the lives of Vermonters. Rob Koier’s documentary helps us all see and feel how the impact of our addiction to fossil fuels challenges life as we know it in an intimate and compelling manner. Let’s hope this important work inspires meaningful change.” – Jeffrey Hollender\, Author\, Activist\, and Co-Founder of Seventh Generation. \nFree and open to the public.
