Fundraiser Update: BREAKING NIGHT screens this sunday

17 May

breaking night

At this Sunday’s fundraiser we have a couple of special shorts screening that we’re super excited about, including BREAKING NIGHT by Red Hook’s own Yolanda Ross. You might recognize Yolanda from her acting work on HBO’s TREME or on stage with New York’s Labrynth Theater Company.  BREAKING NIGHT, also starring Clarke Peters (THE WIRE, TREME),  is her directorial debut and won Best Short Film at last year’s San Diego Indie Film Festival.

We’re really honored that Yolanda’s sharing her work with us, so come on out to Bait and Tackle this Sunday at 5, have some great food from our sponsors, vote for Neighborhood Choice, find out what’s screening on the pier this summer, and see BREAKING NIGHT!

 

 

2014 Fundraiser–Sunday, Sunday, Sunday!

12 May

Valentino pier Red Hook

It was 79 degrees today–79! Summer was clearly sending a little salvo our way but that’s ok because over here at Red Hook Flicks, we’ve had Summer in our sights for quite some time. In fact, the line up for this year’s movies on the pier has been selected and we can’t wait to share them with you at our annual fundraiser! Come out and join us and our amazing sponsors this Sunday, May 18 at 5 p.m. at Red Hook Bait and Tackle. There’ll be food from our sponsors and we’ll unveil this summer’s slate of films. Plus there will be special screenings and a raffle for a prize package from Brooklyn Slate.

And perhaps MOST importantly, you get to vote on this season’s NEIGHBORHOOD CHOICE film! Last year you selected Don’t Tell Mom The Babysitter’s Dead.  What will it be this year? Well, that’s up to you. $1 per vote. As always, ballot stuffing is highly encouraged!

$10 suggested donation … but all are welcome regardless of ability to pay.

See you this Sunday at 5 p.m.!
