The Waitsfield Children’s Center (WCC) is bringing Mountainfilm on Tour to the Mad River Valley for its annual showing. Mountainfilm on Tour brings a selection of culturally rich, adventure-packed documentary films curated from the Mountainfilm festival in Telluride, Colorado. The tour will soon visit Waitsfield at the Big Picture Theater and Café on Saturday, November 5, at 7 p.m. with films that explore themes connected to Mountainfilm’s mission of using the power of film, art and ideas to inspire audiences to create a better world.

 

Mountainfilm on Tour in Waitsfield is hosted by The Waitsfield Children’s Center in partnership with Lawson’s Finest Liquids and Waitsfield and Champlain Valley Telecom. WCC has been organizing Mountainfilm on Tour for over 20 years as a fundraiser to support its mission to provide child care in the Mad River Valley. A silent auction, including a variety of items donated by local businesses, such as Vee's Flowers and Garden Shop, Three Mountain Cafe and Mad River Glen, will be available before and during the show to raise additional funds for WCC. By purchasing Mountainfilm on Tour tickets, people can view an inspiring collection of films while also supporting The Waitsfield Children’s Center.

The cost for the show is $20 for adults and $12 for students and children. Tickets for Mountainfilm on Tour in Waitsfield can be purchased online at https://www.waitsfieldchildrenscenter.org. Food and drinks will be available from the Big Picture Theater and Café. See the complete playlist at www.mountainfilm.org/tour/schedule.
