This series operates as an open mic for moving image. Share a video that has never screened in public before, and we will debut the work together! Artists must be in attendance at the screening. Partial edits and work-in-progress are welcome. All artists whose work is screened are paid. We’ll share one question each artist has for the audience, and a discussion of the works will follow. Total runtime will be approximately 60-75 minutes. We are grateful to bring this series to a new location in collaboration with PO Box Collective in Rogers Park!

PO Box Collective endeavors to be of the community and for the community. Founded in 2019, PO Box is an all-volunteer, multiracial, multigenerational, antiracist organizing, mutual aid and art hub located in Rogers Park. PO Box brings together thousands of people every year who might otherwise never meet in our cultural programming and mutual aid projects. Through this work we redistribute wealth while learning, organizing, creating and celebrating together. For more information, visit poboxcollective.us.
