Join Anna Marie for an evening of popular jazzy tunes from 1930 to the present. Kicking off with an Anita O'Day- inspired version of Georgia on My Mind and ending with Miley Cyrus' Flowers, Anna's dynamic contralto voice is sure to please. As a child, Anna learned to love big band music from her maternal Grandmother who was a music teacher. As a lifelong feminist, Anna developed a perspective on songwriting that helped her hone in on egalitarian queues that may not be so obvious to the average ear.
This special event is co-sponsored by the Town of New Castle's Climate and Environment Commission who will also facilitate a Q&A after the film with invited guests. Narrated by David Oyelowo, ELEMENTAL: REIMAGINE WILDFIRE takes viewers on a journey across the nation with the top experts to better understand fire. The film starts with the harrowing escape from Paradise, California as the town ignited from wind-driven embers and burned within a few hours of the fire's start. The film includes the voices of climate experts, Indigenous people, and fire survivors, and asks us to reimagine wildfire as we prepare for an increasingly hotter future.
