LIVE FILM SCREENING | OPEN DIALOGUES: STORIES FROM THE LGBTQ COMMUNITY
Join us for a live public screening of the documentary short film, Open Dialogues: Stories From the LGBTQ Community, produced by the Art and Culture Center/Hollywood and directed by award-winning Miami-based filmmaker, Freddy Rodriguez. The screening, part of this year's National Coming Out Day, will be held at ArtServe on Monday, October 11th , followed by an interactive panel discussion and community dialogue. This special one-night only event commemorates the 33rd annual National Coming Out Day and is presented by ArtServe in partnership with the Arts and Culture Center/ Hollywood, Stonewall Museum & Archives, World AIDS Museum and ArtsUnited.
Completed in 2020, Open Dialogues: Stories From the LGBTQ Community, captures the diverse coming-out narratives of seven Broward residents who took part in on-camera interviews. The film reveals in intimate detail how the LGBTQ community is often marginalized within families, schools, churches, and public spaces – and how individuals interviewed for the film learned to empower themselves in these spaces. Participants include Julie Marie Wade, Dan Bassett, Christine Walters, Omar Morales, Gary Keating, Franchesca D’Amore, and Michael Goodman.
Panelists: Gary Keating (Founder, Fort Lauderdale Gay Men's Chorus), Nicole Stodard (Artistic Director, Thinking Cap Theatre), and Terry Dyer (Director of Development, SunServe Social Services).
