Seattle in the winter: what comes to mind? Misty cold, gray skies, layers — not shorts, right? Wrong.
Inspired by last summer’s very successful MadArt event, and to celebrate the launch of our new subscription service, IndieFlix is launching its MadFlix series of free screenings and refreshments at 6pm this Thursday, December 3, 2009. We’ll be showing three short films and serving up wine, beer, and various snacks and hors d’oeuvres at the Madison Park Starbucks, 4000 E. Madison Street in Seattle.
It promises to be quite an evening: we’re going to have a chance to sample a nice little wine called Magito, supplied for the event by Meadowcroft, a California winery. I can personally attest* that this alone is reason to attend. On top of that, Seattle’s Magnolia AV will be installing its fanciest, most unaffordable, top-of-the-line equipment to showcase the films. This might be your best chance to see how the other half watches. And beer and hors d’oeuvres are being supplied by local businesses La Panzanella Bakery, Beecher’s Cheeses, and McGilvra’s Restaurant and Bar.
The entire event is free. No, seriously, free. PLUS we’re giving away some cool stuff — films, subscriptions, various swag. And stick around after: we’re moving the party down the street to McGilvra’s, 4234 E. Madison.
In the spirit of the season we’ll be collecting donations for Northwest Harvest: food, household items, baby supplies, all very much needed this time of the year.
Come and drink with us! Watch — I mean watch, come and watch with us.
