J-Sei At The Movies
Friday, January 13, 6:30 pm (on Zoom)
You’re invited to join us to celebrate the new year! We had a warm and cozy Anniversary celebration in December. From our Movie Night poll, we discovered that hearing from the young Asian Americans in the industry has been inspiring. And we still enjoy watching movies of all kinds, even using different streaming formats, and engaging in conversation with the filmmakers.
What will 2023 bring to our Movie Night venue? We hope to test out in-person viewing in the new year once again. What a joy it is to meet in community.
For the near-term, though, we remain in Zoom mode. Please join us on Friday, January 13, at 6:30pm for a Japanese classic movie watch party and discussion (movie tbd).
See you at the movies!
RSVP to jill@j-sei.org with “Jan movie night” in the subject line to receive Zoom info prior to the event.
