St Andrew's Episcopal Church

It's hard to put into words, isn't it, when something just feels right? But that's exactly how it was for Nick &amp; Brew. Like long lost brothers- one from the South, one from the North; one raised Protestant, the other Catholic. When they met amid the vibrant music scene of Asheville, NC, it just felt right. We think when you hear their "Nick &amp; Brewgrass" sound, it'll just feel right for you, too. &nbsp;Reception will follow.

Cinema Arts Theatres

Climate Action NOW Monthly Film Festival is excited to launch our 3rd SEASON of monthly film screenings that will help navigate us through climate impacts, biodiversity loss, and the plastic crisis in our communities with innovative solutions.
You don’t want to miss our eye-opening event on Monday evening September 28, 2026! Sea levels on the U. S. East Coast are rising at an accelerated rate since 2010, with some areas experiencing three to four times the global average. A 600-mile “hot spot” from Cape Hatteras, NC to Boston, MA has shown rapid, accelerated, rising rates of over half an inch per year.

Award-Winning THE RETREAT Directed by Academy Award-Winning Thomas F. Lennon
THE RETREAT showcases three Rutgers scientists—ecologists Thomas “Motz” Grothues and Lisa Auermuller, along with oceanographer Oscar Schofield—alongside the Rutgers University Marine Field Station. 
“We know with sea level rise, water isn’t just going to come and go,” Auermuller states in the film. “It’s going to come and stay. What we know as of today’s high tides… will be the permanent condition moving forward.”
Awarding-Winning Saliqmiut: people along the coast, at the edge Directed by Alan Rudolph Marcus
Saliqmiut: people along the coast, at the edge explores the impact of climate change on two communities in sharply different urban and natural settings. In January 2025, Los Angeles experienced the worst fires in its history, destroying more than 18,000 homes and structures. While in the small Canadian Inuit hamlet Tuktoyaktuk on the Arctic Ocean the community is contending with coastal erosion, flooding and the town’s relocation. Saliqmiut adopts a novel fire and ice bifocal perspective to consider the local implications and adaption to the escalating effects of climate change.
Awarding-Winning SALTED EARTH Directed by Ben Hemmings
Dive into the gripping world of Salted Earth, a powerful 20-minute documentary that reveals the silent crisis reshaping the Mid-Atlantic: rising sea levels. This film doesn’t just present facts; it immerses you in a vivid narrative of environmental turmoil, where the relentless surge of saltwater threatens to obliterate forests and fertile lands. As we follow a passionate team of scientists navigating these brackish waters, their quest becomes not just about research but a lifeline for vulnerable communities. “Can our strategy against the rising sea succeed, or are we fighting an unwinnable war?” This burning question resonates deeply, urging viewers to confront the stark realities of climate change and the fragile balance of our coastal ecosystems.
