In anticipation of Celluloid Bainbridge's upcoming 20th anniversary retrospective (November 17-18), festival founder Kathleen Thorne and Lynwood Theatre maven TJ Faddis talk with BCB host John Fossett about the history, technical challenges, and highlights of this iconic film festival. Over the last 20 years of the festival there have been numerous surprises. Listen here and learn about the Trojan Horse, the true test of a Bainbridge Islander, the superstition surrounding one film, which filmmaker has TWO films in the festival (one under an assumed name), Kathleen's own surprising contribution to the festival, and what's a cowboy hat got to do with anything? For this year's festival, the Opening Night Reception will take place at 5pm on Saturday November 17 at the Marketplace at Pleasant Beach. Guests will enjoy fine food and drink and the company of Bainbridge Island author Jonathan Evison. After the Reception, head across the street to the Historic Lynwood Theatre for an exclusive screening of “The Fundamentals of Caring,” the 2016 film based on Evison’s best-selling book “The Revised Fundamentals of Caregiving.” Evison will host a Q&A after the film. And then, free all day Sunday at the Lynwood Theatre, you'll see feature-length dramas, documentaries, comedy shorts, and experimental music videos, all representing the creativity, the hilarity, and the heart that have defined Celluloid from the very beginning. Don't miss this fabulous 20th anniversary retrospective: it's quintessential Bainbridge! Credits: BCB Host: John Fossett; BCB audio editor and publisher: Diane Walker; social media: Jen St. Louis.

If you've enjoyed reading the poems in all the windows along Winslow Way this month, you'll want to be sure to listen as the poets read their poems aloud as part of Poetry Corners Live at the Bainbridge Island Museum of Art at 7pm Wednesday evening, April 25th. Begun in 1999 by Kathleen Thorne under the aegis of Arts Humanities Bainbridge, Poetry Corners has for 19 years provided a venue for the many poets of Bainbridge Island to display their poems in the windows of local businesses. Listen here as BCB host Charlotte Cook talks with Island Treasure and poet extraordinaire Nancy Rekow about the history of Poetry Corners, who's eligible, and how the poems are chosen. We also learn that AHB will be producing a chapbook of the poems, which will be sold at the Poetry Corners Live event on the 25th, and that the BIMA cafe will be selling delicious food for an hour prior to the event. Poetry Corners Live is free to attend, but registration is required: for tickets and more information about the program and the poets, visit the AHB website at AHBainbridge.org.

When information is democratized, anyone can post content. On the one hand, this is really liberating, but on the other, it makes it really difficult to accurately assess what is true and what is not. In this, the final talk of this year's Library U series on Fake News at the Bainbridge Island Library, Di Zhang, reference librarian at the Seattle Public Library, offers instructions on how to evaluate the plethora of information we encounter, and describes some resources and best practices for identifying fake news. Listen here to learn more about Snopes; reverse image searching; Buzzfeed; the caveats against sharing, liking, and clickbait; and much more. For additional help, see the resource list posted on the Bainbridge Public Library website at http://www.bainbridgepubliclibrary.org/pdfs/Fake-News-Survival-Guide.pdf. Library U organizer Kathleen Thorne has created a video of this presentation; to view that video, visit https://youtu.be/m4kVn5aqShQ.

In this podcast, we meet organizers and participants in the ambitious Bainbridge Island arts community project called "Earth Art Bainbridge." They talk with BCB host Reed Price about their goals and plans and the many opportunities for community members to join in. Earth Art Bainbridge is the brainchild of local activist, computer scientist, and author Beth Robson. She hopes that people will start thinking now about how to explore their response to our changing climate using art – whether the medium is music, theater, poetry, photography, painting or performance. Barbara Sacerdote, the Executive Director of Arts & Humanities Bainbridge says her organization is fully supportive, saying “if any community can do this, Bainbridge Island can.” Also part of this discussion are: Kathleen Thorne of Bainbridge Performing Arts and Island Theater; both groups have plans to support the project; Leslie Schneider of OfficeXpats, who will be organizing a speed-lecture show, “Ignite Bainbridge,” as part of Earth Art Bainbridge; Joel Sackett, accomplished photographer, who is the project’s lead artist; and Janet Knox, poet and scientist, who is among the project’s early announced participants. For more information and to indicate your possible interest in participating, visit the Earth Art Bainbridge website. Or, contact the organizers through their website. This project is sponsored and supported by: Sustainable Bainbridge, Arts & Humanities Bainbridge, Artopia Creative, OfficeXpats, Island Theater, Bainbridge Performing Arts, Ignite Bainbridge, Bainbridge Island Metro Park & Recreation District, Bainbridge Public Library, the Bloedel Reserve, and the Bainbridge Community Foundation.
