Screening of "The City Dark"

Dance Exchange and the We Are Takoma film series are hosting a screening of the documentary “The City Dark.” The film reveals the effects of light pollution and the disappearance of the stars from our lives. Filmmaker Ian Cheney explores the threat of asteroids in Hawaii, tracks turtles along the beach in Florida, and helps rescue injured birds on the streets of Chicago. “The City Dark” shows the implications of a world increasingly filled with light and devoid of the night sky. Sponsored by the City of Takoma Park and the Arts and Humanities Council of Takoma Park, this event will take place at the Takoma Park Community Center at 7500 Maple Avenue.

Begins at 7:30pm. There is a suggested donation of $5 for this event.
