Dear {usertag:name}
Don’t forget that we are having a public screening of the movie “In Transition 1.0” next Thursday 14 April. This has been publicised in local media and newsletters as follows:
Transition The Grove invites residents in Ferny Grove Keperra and Upper Kedron to a free public video and discussion evening about building a local community that is sustainable environmentally responsible and resilient in the face of disruptive events. Watch locals put centrally located land back into food production. Enjoy the zest with which reskilling expertise is passed along. Tour a school where community building is taught. And go inside the council chambers as members discuss passing ordinances to accelerate Transition initiatives.
And there are the children. Lots of children. They are woven as a strand through the piece; their beaming faces a glimpse of a future with more holiness. We watch them as they learn and we listen as they speak in their own voices. A poised young lady emerges as one of the filmÂ’s narrators.
But the notion of community resilience is really the star of this show. The movie will be followed by a facilitated discussion and a chat over supper.
Where: Arana Hills Library 63 Cobbity Crescent Arana Hills
When: 7:00pm Thursday 14 April
Cost: Free (Gold coin donation appreciated)
This movie provides an engaging and informative overview of Transition Towns. It will undoubtedly stimulate useful discussion and action towards building community resilience.
