Eco Movie Night: Introduction to the Transition Movement

EVENT DATE: Saturday, March 1, 7:00 p.m.
VENUE: Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Center, 13325 Beach Ave., Marina del Rey, CA, 90292

FREE, please RSVP to transitionmarvista@gmail.com

You've met Transition movement members at volunteer events, political rallies, potlucks, your favorite community garden, and countless other local events. But you're still kind of wondering what Transition, as a movement, is about. Right?

The short answer is that if you keep overlapping with local Transition members, you're probably part of the movement yourself! Author, environmental activist, and Transition Mar Vista/Venice founding member Anneke Campbell will introduce you to this worldwide phenomenon, and how it has transformed communities since Rob Hopkins co-founded Transition Town Totnes in his native UK in 2005.

We'll screen the film In Transition 2.0 (www.intransitionmovie.com) and a short documentary about Transition Mar Vista/Venice shot and produced by our own Stephon Litwinczuk of Oneness Media.

Expect to meet friends and neighbors active in Transition Mar Vista/Venice and Transition Culver City--and perhaps from farther afield. We welcome your questions and comments in this discussion about how Angelenos are participating in the international Transition movement.
