Napa Valley Film Festival To Hold Town Hall Q-and-A Meetings

News from NVFF:

Napa Valley Film Festival organizers are hosting their first series of public Town Halls meetings this summer, co-presented by Arts Council Napa Valley. The purpose of the meetings is to engage in a dialogue with the local community, provide a glimpse into planning and footprint for the upcoming 5th annual NVFF, and give the public the opportunity to ask questions.

NVFF Festival Directors Marc and Brenda Lhormer will give a short presentation about what is new in the 2015 program including new screening locations, and will address common misconceptions and often-asked questions. This will be followed by a questions and answer period moderated by Olivia Everett, the Executive Director of Arts Council Napa Valley. Wine and sweet treats will be served.

“We encourage our partners, audience, and those who have never participated at NVFF to attend, as we want to hear what our community has to say,” said NVFF Co-Founder/Director Brenda Lhormer. “It is so important to always have our finger on the pulse of what locals feel or know about the festival. We’ve addressed the issues we heard about and observed last year, but it’s always good to ask for feedback all year long, so the festival can keep growing in the right way, and get better and better!”

The schedule of meetings is as follows:

July 1: Napa Valley College, 2277 Napa Vallejo Highway, McCarthy Library, Bldg. 1700, Room 1731, Napa, CA

July 8: Farmstead at Long Meadow Ranch, 738 Main St., St. Helena, CA

July 9: Mount View Hotel, 1457 Lincoln Ave., Calistoga, CA

July 23: Napa Valley Museum, 55 Presidents Circle, Yountville, CA

All meetings are held 6:00 – 7:30 pm. Wine and cookies will be served.
