On May 6th, a local documentary by Savannah Wilson, "Erie's Population Decline: The Human Side of a Changing County," will be premiering in our space at 5:30pm.
This documentary is a collage of voices, visions, and raw reality of population decline. The floor will be open for a networking session and a deep-dive Q&A with the filmmaker and two of their cohort members following the screening. They will be discussing the creative process and political conflicts that come with tackling a topic as sensitive population decline. Come prepared to meet, move, and see things differently.
This story explores the intersection of art, advocacy, and the political friction involved in telling this story.
