The first Friday of each month, the Wildling Art Museum in Los Olivos, a museum devoted to the art of America’s wilderness, screens notable films about nature or art and invites the public to come see them free of charge. The Museum also provides free popcorn and cookies, wine, water, and soft drinks. Reservations are not required, but space is limited and seats are available on a first come, first served basis.

The Free Friday Flicks are underwritten by a generous grant from The Valley Foundation.

Free Friday Flicks: “Riches, Rivals and Radicals: 100 Years of Museums in America”

Those who came to the October event discovered the commanding and charismatic characters whose fervor fueled the 20th century revolution that changed America’s museums from dusty and elitist to dynamic and democratic! This landmark public television special, hosted by award-winning national correspondent Susan Stamberg, featured museum stories coast to coast. 60 minutes.

The movie began at 7:00 p.m. and was shown at the Wildling Art Museum’s administrative offices, 2948 Nojoqui Street, Suite 4. For more information or directions, call 688-1082.
