GOOD GRIEF Community Event

The approaching winter holidays unfortunately can bring anxiety and sadness for those experiencing the loss of a loved one or pet. This is why SIFTMedia 215 (that stands for Sisters in Film and Television) will present a GOOD GRIEF Community Event with its partner, @thethreadphilly. Check out The Good Grief Film Project featuring eight engaging short films by SIFTMedia filmmakers developed from various original poems. The screenings will include breaks for reflection through recordings of an improvised musical performance by PARALLEL WAVE, inspired by the films and poets. A question-and-answer session will follow with the poets and filmmakers. The event includes resources, memorial candle-making, socializing, and a conversation about experiencing grief around the holidays with Janice Tosto, host of “Grief Journeys” on @gtownradio. Refreshments in a welcoming environment. Free but pre-registration is required, 2 p.m. EST. PhilaMOCA, 531 N. 12^th St. siftmedia215.org or eventbrite.com.
