CINEMA SOCIALS

Friday Soirees: Cinema Socials is the informal gathering of a reflective community: family, friends, associates, men, women, and even participating children as they come together to watch movies on a wide range of topics. With each cinema social, there is an opportunity to learn from both individual and group reflections and to explore “what is possible” based on lessons we learned. Every cinema social is different. Its fun, heartwarming, and a great way to create community.

“It’s like going home on friday and watching TV with friends instead of alone” -Audrey

“A thought-provoking movie and genuine conversation …There was immediate intimacy and new friendships.” ~Heide

Bring you own snack or stop by the nearby Sub. Free Popcorn. Come join the fun!

Reflective communities making a difference one movie at a time.

Humanity Ascending

Friday, February 7, 2014 | 5:30 PM – 8:30 PM |

Hosts:

Kathy Roth, CFP Waterstone Partners

Madelyn Whiteside, Keller Williams Realty

Our story is seen through evolutionary eyes as the unfoldment of a fourteen billion year journey of transformation, now pressing us forward to give birth within ourselves to a universal human and a universal humanity capable of coevolving with nature and cocreating with spirit. Our storyteller, Barbara Marx Hubbard, provides the unique perspective of viewing our history through what she terms as “evolutionary eyes” as the unfoldment of a fourteen billion year journey of transformation that is now pressing us forward to give birth to a new, never before seen, universal humanity. This compelling vision of hope sees us at an evolutionary edge where the old world is dying and the new world is being born. Share this powerful message of hope with family and friends!
