6:30 pm Reception
7:30 pm Interactive Film Program
at the
Internet Archive
300 Funston Ave.
San Francisco, CA 94118
Get tickets here!
As usual, the audience creates the soundtrack — you’ll
be asked to identify places and events, share your thoughts,
and create an unruly interactive symphony of speculation
about the city we’ve lost and the city we’d like to live
in.
The film begins at 7:30 pm and is preceded by an informal
reception that begins at 6:30 pm. Light concessions will
be available for purchase. Although capacity is limited,
no one will be turned away due to lack of funds.
Home Movie Day–A Celebration of Amateur Films and
Filmmaking
December 12
Do you have a much loved home movie sitting in the back of
your closet? Something you would love to screen but don’t
have the means to project anymore? Then Home Movie Day is
for you. The Internet Archive will be hosting Home Movie
Day for the San Francisco Bay Area on Saturday, December
12, 2015 starting at 3 p.m. The event is free and open
to the public.
Get tickets here!
Home Movie Day provides an opportunity for individuals and
families to see and share their own home movies with an
audience from their own community, and to see their
neighbors’ in turn. It’s a chance to discover why these
films are important and learn how best to care for them. We
will have the film projectors, you are encouraged to bring
your own home movies on 8mm, 16mm, or Super 8 to project on
our big screen.

We hope you’ll join us in person—or in spirit—with
these two events dedicated to preserving our cinematic past
and future. By supporting the Internet Archive, you are
putting knowledge in the hands of millions of people. Thank
you!
