Madison Park Goes Mad for MadFlix!

Friday, December 4th, 2009

Last night’s MadFlix event was a huge success, thanks to the Madison Park community and Starbucks staff.

We had a packed house and everyone had a good time sampling McGilvra’s delicious cheese pizza and beer, Magito Family of Wines (the Zinfandel was to die for!), Beecher’s Handmade Cheese and La Panzanella Crackers.

The audience was completely attentive during the short film screenings. We showed Anna McRoberts’ “The Wind Fisherman,” Rune Christensen’s “Down The Road” and Anurag Mehta’s “The Trident.”

This was the first (in what we hope will be many) community screening events. It was a great opportunity for the Madison Park community to learn more about IndieFlix and a chance for us to meet some of our filmmakers and other IndieFlix contributors and friends.

By the end of the night, we had to kick people out of Starbucks and usher them to McGilvra’s for an after-party wrap-up. We’re all nursing our hangovers today but think fondly on a night well spent.
