SUMMARY:Society Project Films Premiere
DESCRIPTION:The Society Project (in a time of Climate Change)\nFriday\, January 17 at 7pm\n118 Elliot \nA screening of the community interviews created by Hilltop Montessori Middle School students for The Society Project.  \nThe Hilltop Montessori Middle School has dedicated this academic year to the study of climate change and crisis. The class spent the majority of September and October in the woods studying carbon sequestration\, reading Thoreau and other great naturalists\, and through observation\, stewardship\, and writing\, deepening their connection to the Earth. \nMoving from the forest to downtown late in October\, students began a study of place and how a sense of place defines much of our identity. As Wendell Berry wrote: “If you don’t know where you are\, you don’t know who you are.” A place is as much a community of shared values as it is a physical environment and the class set out to discover how their community is responding to the threat and reality of climate change. The Society Project is the centerpiece of this exploration. For the project\, students selected\, interviewed and photographed a member of the wider Brattleboro community and created a digital montage. The interview and resulting montage focused on how the individual in both their work and life addresses climate change. \nCommunity members from many walks of life were involved in this project. There are individuals involved in the municipal life of Brattleboro\, artists\, activists\, clergy\, entrepreneurs\, a state senator\, and business owners. The resulting series of short films reveals a committed\, aware\, and involved community who care deeply about the future of Brattleboro and the world.

SUMMARY:Brattleboro Farm Stories
DESCRIPTION:On Sunday\, January 19\, from 3-5 pm\, the Vermont Folklife Center\, Brattleboro Words Project and 118 Elliot will present Brattleboro Farm Stories\, a FREE community storytelling event bringing together local farmers and residents to share personal reflections on our region’s agricultural heritage at 118 Elliot Street\, Brattleboro\, Vermont. Set amongst the backdrop of Richard Brown’s stunning photographic exhibit\, The Last of the Hill Farms: Echoes of Vermont’s Past\, Brattleboro Farm Stories will explore the connections between Vermont’s vital farming past and its living\, breathing present. \nThe “seeds” for Brattleboro Farm Stories were planted at opening reception for The Last of the Hill Farms exhibit at the 118 Elliot’s gallery in November. As local farmer Howie Prussack lingered amongst Brown’s photos\, he and his friends talked about the world the images depicted—sharing stories about the farmers they remembered and reflecting on their own lives in agriculture. Inspired by the vivid reminiscences of Prussack and his fellow farmers\, VFC Trustees Leslie Turpin and Andy Davis and Associate Director\, Andy Kolovos began to explore the creation of a public\, local conversation—a dialogue between people and photographs—like the discussions shared between friends on that evening. \nOn the afternoon of January 19\, 2020 local farmers will gather at 118 Elliot to spin stories of their own farming life\, inspired by the presence of Brown’s images on display. Jay Bailey (Brattleboro)\, Ashlyn Bristle (West Brattleboro)\, Al Franklin (Guilford)\, Dan MacArthur (Marlboro)\, Helen Robb (West Brattleboro) and others will kick off the story-telling. Audience members will be invited to build on the stories and images around them by adding stories of their own. Andy Davis will moderate the storytelling and share a new ballad that he wrote on the life of Romaine Tenney\, a farmer in the Ascutney area. Arthur Davis will also perform a recitation of “The Giving War” by Mac Parker. \nRichard Brown’s inspirational photograph exhibit\, Last of the Hill Farms: Echoes of Vermont’s Past will be on display at 118 Elliot through January. The lives\, landscapes\, and time period Brown so lovingly captured are available for viewing through large and small format\, finely detailed\, photographic prints\, which were hand-made by the artist. The Last of the Hill Farms is a collection of moments born from the land and the people—then crafted by Richard’s careful hand with preparation\, patience\, and a bit of serendipity. Gallery hours are most Saturday afternoons from 12 to 3 pm or by appointment. The exhibit closes the end of January.

SUMMARY:The Architecture + Design Film Series | The Proposal
DESCRIPTION:Directed by Jill Magid (2018\, USA\, 86 mins)\n\nUpon the death of architect Luis Barragan in 1988\, much of his design work was privately purchased and concealed from the world’s view. In this film\, artist Jill Magid creates a daring proposition that becomes a fascinating artwork in itself\, an act of negotiation that explores how far an artist will go to democratize access to art.\n\n\n\n\nThe Architecture + Design Film Series\, shown monthly in Brattleboro and Burlington\, continues with a screening of THE PROPOSAL (2018\, Directed by Jill Magid\, USA\, 86 min)\, the shocking story of one artist’s attempt to democratize the privately-held archives of Mexico’s most famous architect\, Luis Barragán\, on Wednesday\, January 22 at 6:30 pm at 118 Elliot in downtown Brattleboro. All film showings are free and open to all. \n\n\n\nCalled “the artist among architects\,” Luis Barragán is Mexico’s most famous architect\, known for bold shapes and colors such as Mexico City’s Torres de Satélite\, designed in collaboration with Mathias Goeritz. Upon his death in 1986\, Barragán’s treasured archives fell under the control of a Swiss woman\, Federica Zanco\, who allows only limited public access to them at her foundation in Basel. The Proposal details Jill Magid’s dogged attempt to mount an exhibition of Barragán’s works\, following Magid’s correspondence with Zanco and her final culminating effort\, a stunt which one news outlet called “a ghoulish plot.”  \n\n\n\nThe Architecture + Design Film Series\, started six years ago in Burlington\, selects diverse films celebrating design in all its various forms.  Their success in Burlington led local architect Jim Williams\, who designed the popular    118 Elliot\, to extend the series’ reach to the opposite end of the state in Brattleboro with support from the American Institute of Architects Vermont Chapter (AIAVT) and numerous local business and individual sponsors.  Now the monthly screenings are held simultaneously in Burlington and in Brattleboro at 118 Elliot through April 2020.  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. \n\n\n\nThe 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.
