Cine, Musica y Alma: Fundraising Event for Cine Las Americas
Cine Las Americas is a not-for-profit, multi-cultural media arts center located in Austin which promotes cross-cultural understanding and growth by educating, entertaining and challenging the community through media and film of the Americas. We think they're a vital part in promoting underserved voices in our community, and so we encourage everyone to support them.
"How can I possibly help?" you might ask. Well, this weekend, Cine Las Americas is having its second annual fundraising gala at Penn Field Design Center. The evening will include signature event night drinks from Z'Tejas bartenders and music.
According to their site, "The gala will also feature a silent auction benefiting Cine Las Americas, its film festival, and other programming offered throughout the year" and there will be an "unveiling of the 9th Cine Las Americas Film Festival poster, and advance All-Access Passes to the 9th Cine Las Americas International Film Festival at discount prices."
This sounds like a great way to support the organization and to help it continue to provide us with film and media diversity and to encourage mentorship and opportunities for young filmmakers and musicians.
