Director's Reception & Fundraiser
May 11th 6-7:45pm
Phyllis Stein Art would like to invite you to please join us for a red carpet reception honoring Director Cheryl Dunye.
Emceed by Dalila Ali Rajah (of AfterEllen's Cherry Bomb.) The evening will include special guest appearances by members of the original 'Watermelon Woman' cast and crew.
Burlesque performance by Malaika Millions. DJ set by Anna Margarita Albelo.
Art Auction
The night will include an art auction, all proceeds go towards adding Watermelon Woman to the Outfest Legacy Collection at UCLA. Due to economic constraints, labs notoriously discard film elements - please save Watermelon Woman! Placing the film into the archive is the first and best step against film disintegration!
