TOMORROW! Join Junktown Cinema Club and for a screening of “Three Year Soil: A Community Farmstead,” directed by - the third installment in our Independent Documentary Film Series.

🗓Date: Friday, February 16th
⏰Time: 5:30 p.m.

Suggested donation: $10 at the door

🎙Directly following the screening we will have a Q&A with Green Junction Farmstead’s Dawn Trujillo and Brian Adams.

🌱Three Year Soil: A Community Farmstead, based out of Grand Junction, CO explores the heartbreak, hard work, passion, and the pursuit of healthy food and a strong community. Dawn and Brian of Green Junction Farmstead have seen it all while chasing their dreams, from multiple lost farms, bears, foxes, failed crops, and the community that wouldn’t give up. In the end, Dawn and Brian never created this community, this community materialized in moments of need to support regenerative agriculture in the Grand Valley.

👉We’ll have the recording of the Q & A along with mentioned article links and steps of action posted to https://www.grandvalleyuu.org/films.html early next week.

Happy 2024! 🎊

Can’t believe we’ve been doing this cinema thing for 2 years now! As a DIY film org, we’ve been taking things slow as our all-volunteer team balances our various life commitments — but we’re happy to be building a community that values intentionality over urgency and rest over burnout. Wishing you the same in your new year.

In the meantime, we’ll still be putting on pop up screenings throughout the year — including another installment in our DocuFilm series that we’ll post about later today ✨

Hey hey! 👋 It’s been a few months since we last posted, but we’re so excited to be back from our hiatus with a new documentary film screening series, co-hosted with the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of the Grand Valley!

Join us once a month (for the foreseeable future!) for an Independent Documentary Film Series, using documentaries to shed light on topics of social & environmental justice.

Our first screening is coming up soon on Friday, November 17th, where we’ll be showing Mike Youngren’s newest film entitled WCGW? (What Could Go Wrong?).

This locally-produced documentary details past and present plans to build an expensive rail line to support a massive increase in crude oil produced in the Uintah Basin. If the railroad plans are ever realized, the waxy crude would be sent toward southern state refineries by way of Colorado.

🗓️ DATE: Friday, November 17th
⏰ TIME: 6pm, followed by a talkback with the filmmaker at 6:30pm
📍LOCATION: 536 Ouray Ave, Grand Junction, Colorado
Suggested Donation: $5
