WE CONTINUED OUR COMMUNITY EDUCATION PROGRAM DEEP DIVE, AN ONGOING SERIES OF FREE PUBLIC CONVERSATIONS FOCUSING ON A WIDE RANGE OF TOPICS AND THEMES RELATED TO FILMS SCREENED AT LIGHTBOX. THESE INFORMAL DISCUSSIONS WITH ARTISTS, SCHOLARS AND FILM ENTHUSIASTS BRING THE FILM GOING EXPERIENCE INTO A DISCURSIVE SETTING, EXTENDING WHAT'S ON SCREEN TO WHAT'S ON YOUR MIND. OUR CONTINUED PARTNERSHIP WITH THE DA VINCI ART ALLIANCE BROUGHT ROTATING ART EXHIBITS TO OUR GALLERY SPACE.
