Films

Since 2009, Transition Palo Alto and Transition Silicon Valley have hosted Films of Vision and Hope  – educational and thought-provoking films and discussions about creative and resilient solutions to the environmental and social challenges of our time.

Films of Vision and Hope is now part of Fourth Friday, co-sponsored by Transition Palo Alto, Transition Silicon Valley, and the Unitarian Universalist Church of Palo Alto. Fourth Friday events are held in the Fireside Room at the church, usually 7:30-9:30pm on the Fourth Friday of each month.

For info on the next event, see the “Coming up” list at http://transitionpaloalto.org.  Sometimes a film/discussion evening is replaced by a potluck, picnic or other special event, so check the listing each month. Sign up for our Google Groups mailing list to get all the latest info.

If you have ideas for film, speakers, or other topics of interest to our local Transition community, write to  transitionpaloalto@gmail.com.
