Scribe’s neighborhood screening series goes “undercover” at indoor locations around the region this fall. For the past 35 years, Montessori Genesis II has been providing affordable high-quality education for students in Pre-Kindergarten through the 4th grade. Taking advantage of the many wonderful resources (universities, museums, libraries, sports venues, etc.) of Philadelphia to enrich and enhance its educational curriculum and cultural/sports programming, Montessori is a great example of a “school without walls.” Scribe is honored to return to Montessori Genesis II to help celebrate its 35th Anniversary by presenting a program of short films and animation for young people and adults. Films to be screened include Montessori Genesis II: A Family Thing, produced in 1992 through Scribe’s Community Visions Program and Space Odyssey 2004, produced through Montessori’s Children's Videography Workshop.

Screening is 4:30 to 6:30 PM. Doors open at 4.

* Opening performance by Adwoa Tacheampong and Chuckie Joseph of Mewa-Nsoromma Dance and Drum Ensemble.
