Environment-oriented indie films to be projected onto Manhattan Bridge in DUMBO
Human Impacts Institute’s Creative Climate Awards, a month-long celebration of arts and action through Oct. 24, has announced its partnership with the DUMBO Improvement District to screen more than 10 films for free to the public on Thursday.
From 6:30 to 9:30 p.m., the films will be projected onto the Manhattan Bridge. The films, from eight countries, address solutions to climate and health risks and were selected from more than 500 submissions to highlight the collaboration between HII’s Health and Impact Artist Fellows.
“We are excited to celebrate the immense creativity and social justice commitment of international filmmakers, from Turkey to Estonia and from South Africa to NYC. This opportunity to showcase how their work connects us to health and climate solutions across the globe is so important to building the strong and diverse movement we need,” said Tara DePorte, founder and executive director, Human Impacts Institute.
