 If you live in Santa Fe:

 Join the kind folks at The Santa Fe Complex to view the films in Santa Fe on May 10th



 "Starting at noon, Albuquerque time, locations in Cairo, Kigali, London, Los Angeles, Mumbai, and Rio de Janeiro will be linked for a live program of powerful films, live music and visionary speakers. The entire program will be broadcast in seven languages to millions of people worldwide through the internet, television and mobile phones." 



"The 24 short films to be featured have been selected from an international competition that generated more than 2,500 submissions from over one hundred countries.  The films were chosen on their ability to inspire, transform, and allow us to see the world through another person's eyes.  Details on the Pangea Day films can be viewed here."


"The program will also include a number of exceptional speakers and musical performers. Queen Noor of Jordan, CNN's Christiane Amanpour, musician/activist Bob Geldof, and Iranian rock phenom Hypernova are among those taking part."

We have been fortunate to secure the use of the upstairs conference room at the Downtown Flying Star to offer a public venue to view these films as they were meant to be seen, simultaneous with the world, in a community environment where you can exit at any time, grab a bite to eat, a coffee or a beer and meet the other people attending.  



While it's difficult to anticipate attendance, we are requesting that folks RSVP through upcoming.org in order to effectively accommodate attendees in the space available.

Click here to RSVP.



If you are unable to attend in person, you can still view the films online on the day of the event at the PangeaDay.org website.  

Thanks,

-Webb
