May 1- BRWIA featured at Homegrown Film Festival: A Celebration of Sustainability in the High Country

4/27/2013

 
Homegrown Film Festival: A Celebration of Sustainability in the High Country
Wednesday, May 1st, 7:00 – 8:30 PM
Parkway Ballroom (Rm 420), Plemmons Student Union
Free and open to the community; refreshments provided


Join us for film, food and fun. Sustainability endeavors are growing strong in our community.  In the High Country, we share a rich history of working together to ensure that our mountain region will forever be a wonderful place to call home.  The Homegrown Film Festival celebrates some of these efforts through a series of eight mini-documentaries, each spotlighting local people and organizations, including:

  • 350 Boone (climate change)
  • Appalachian Mountain Brewery (small business sustainability)
  • ASU Office of Sustainability (campus sustainability)
  • Biophilic Art Installation (sustainability art)
  • Blue Ridge Conservancy (land protection)
  • Blue Ridge Women in Agriculture (sustainable agriculture)
  • Grandfather Mountain Stewardship Foundation (sustainable tourism)
  • National Committee for the New River (water protection)

This event is hosted by participants in the Sustainable Development course Outreach Skills for Sustainability, including students and instructor Laura England (englandle@appstate.edu).  Click here for event website.

Thank you to event co-sponsor ASU Office of Sustainability as well as Tom Hansell of University Documentary Film Services for assisting the class in creating these mini-documentary films.
