FLIC brings to Boulder an evening of independent film and entertainment that’s as singularly engaging as the community itself. Unlike any other forum, FLIC:
- Combines performing arts with community, causes, and local cuisine & refreshments – all designed to complement a contemporary independent film.
- Brings together all corners of the Boulder community to showcase local artists, promote local businesses and explore human issues.
- Shifts the movie-going experience from passive & staid to engaging & interactive and exposes you to unfamiliar art forms in a fun, accessible and non-threatening format.
FLIC’s co-founders, Emily Lawrence and Dan Spiegler, believe that a movie-going experience can be about more than box office receipts. FLIC’s mission involves community-building through art, film and personal connection to both.
Movie theaters bring people together but discourage interaction by the sit-down, shut-up, watch-this & get-out ritual of today’s googolplex. A FLIC event will break these boundaries by providing a platform for the young to be heard, the elderly to be included, local artists to be showcased, local businesses to be promoted and human issues to be explored.
FLIC’s first season starts in April, 2010 with events scheduled on the last Wednesday of April, May and June at BMoCA (Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art) following the Farmer’s Market. Doors open at 7:15 and the feature begins at 8pm.
