Six films, six distinct communities, countless Philadelphia stories.
In conjunction with the exhibition Humaira Abid: Searching for Home, Mural Arts Philadelphia’s Porch Light program presents Making Home Movies, a collaborative film project created with newly-arrived immigrant and refugee communities in Philadelphia. Making Home Movies partners adult and youth English language learners with filmmakers and poets to explore the language and imagery of home and to create community together.
Doors open at 6:30 pm and viewing begins at 7:00 pm. Wine and light fare will be available.
