It’s OFS’s annual Halloween Party!  Any musicians looking to play this year’s event, now’s the time to think about which band you wanna bring to live for one night only!   Here’s the fine print:  Your band cannot currently be “cover/tribute” band performing in venues (for example:  Hell’s Belles), and if your group is chosen you cannot play in more then one confirmed band for the show.  Submit one or two songs to our Live Events Director: audrey@olympiafilmsociety.org by July 31st.   What You Got!  Festival 2010 needs You(th)! OFS Presents the one of the only South Sound Youth and Young Adult Festivals! Music, Movies, and Art all made by folks 21 year olds and younger, happening September 2010!   It is increasingly important for youth to understand and be actively creating ways to express themselves rather than be consumers of what they are supposed to be.  In regards to this process, What you got? is a weekend long celebration of youth culture.  We are not only looking for youth who want to submit works, but we need volunteers who want help organize the fest.  Sunday, June 13 Experimental Music Festival (film showcase) 1:00pm doors/1:30pm screenings $5.00 General Admission tickets for film showcase available at the box office night of show only.

BUMMER SUMMER (One time screening only)! 2:30pm doors/3:00pm screening FREE SCREENING (donations accepted)  Dir: Zach Weintraub / 2010 / Olympia, WA, USA / B&W / 80 min. Last summer, Oly-bred filmmaker Zach Weintraub shot his first feature film with a local cast, crew, and locations. The result was Bummer Summer: A kid hangs out with his older brother, and then they both start to hang out with this brother's ex-high school sweetheart. They all take a road trip. A great sprawling journey of enlightenment. Or perhaps just a series of botched flirtations.
