SUMMARY:13 Fires | June 24 - 26
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS\nA powerful new community theater production\, 13 Fires\, will bring the story of one of America’s great Black cultural districts to the stage in Boulder this season in celebration of Juneteenth. The play tells the story of Indiana Avenue in Indianapolis—once a thriving Black neighborhood filled with jazz clubs\, Black-owned businesses and the pioneering entrepreneur Madam C. J. Walker\, and legendary performers such as Ella Fitzgerald and Duke Ellington. \nThen the neighborhood was almost completely wiped out. \n13 Fires explores how Indiana Avenue was dismantled during the expansion of Indiana University–Purdue University Indianapolis\, when property acquisitions\, eminent domain threats\, redlining\, and rising taxes forced families out of the homes and community they had built. Through intimate storytelling and memories of the Avenue’s golden era\, the play confronts the human cost of development and displacement. \nWhile the story unfolds in Indianapolis\, the production speaks directly to ongoing conversations about housing\, belonging\, and community change in Boulder and across Colorado. \nPresented during the Juneteenth season\, 13 Fires is a moving reflection on culture\, displacement\, and the enduring spirit of a people determined to keep their stories alive.

SUMMARY:Diamonds | June 24-28
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS\nJune 24-28 \nA film director gathers his favorite actresses\, those he worked with and those he loved. He wants to make a film about women but he doesn’t reveal much: he observes them\, takes cue\, until his imaginary throw them into another era\, in a past where the noise of the sewing machines fills a workplace handled and populated by women\, where men have minor and marginal roles and cinema can be told from another point of view: the one of costume. Between loneliness\, passions\, anxieties\, heartbreaking absence and unbreakable bonds\, reality and fiction permeate\, as well as the lives of the actresses and those of the characters\, the competition and the sisterhood\, the visible and the invisible.

SUMMARY:The Firehouse Art Center presents Slay the Runway Designing Safe Spaces for LGBTQIA+ Youth
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS\nSlay the Runway is a Firehouse Art Center Fashion Design program offered at no cost to LGBTQIA+ youth and Youth allies to support self-expression. Our goal is to be a safe space for teens to explore their own true style in a Gender Expansive and supportive community. \nWith cohorts in Longmont and Boulder\, instructors start with simple projects that improve student sewing and design skills. As confidence builds\, students are challenged to develop their own self-identity as they create an outfit for the showcase. At the fashion show\, students unveil something they’ve created in their style and voice while surrounded by a community sharing their life experiences. In addition to garment construction and design\, participants will work with make-up artists and choreographers to refine their debuts. While there are fashion camps and sewing classes in the area\, no other local offerings address the issue of safe spaces for gender-expansive youth with this depth of creativity\, and it is the only program that is no cost to participants. \nSlay the Runway’s goal is to create an affirming and accessible space where creativity\, expression\, and positive self-image are celebrated. \nThis program is made possible by SCFD\, the City of Longmont\, OASOS\, CU Boulder\, your donations\, and the never ending enthusiasm and passion of the Slay Team!

SUMMARY:Member Movie Pick: Adaptation
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS\nFREE for Dairy Arts Center Members \nSelected by Dairy members as this year’s Annual Member Movie Pick\, Adaptation is a fitting selection from a community of artists\, storytellers\, and creative thinkers. A wildly inventive\, funny\, and deeply human film\, Spike Jonze’s acclaimed collaboration with screenwriter Charlie Kaufman explores the challenges\, anxieties\, and unexpected breakthroughs that shape artistic work. Join us for this special member appreciation screening and discover why this singular film continues to inspire filmmakers\, artists\, and audiences more than two decades after its release. \nAbout Adaptation:\nNicolas Cage is Charlie Kaufman\, a confused L.A. screenwriter overwhelmed by feelings of inadequacy\, sexual frustration\, self-loathing\, and by the screenwriting ambitions of his freeloading twin brother Donald (Nicolas Cage). While struggling to adapt “The Orchid Thief\,” by Susan Orlean (Meryl Streep)\, Kaufman’s life spins from pathetic to bizarre. The lives of Kaufman\, Orlean\, and her book\, become strangely intertwined as each one’s search for passion collides with the others’.\n(Spike Jonze\, 2002\, United States\, 1:55)

Today he is one of more than 300 “keepers” around the globe\, looking out for their respective rivers. \nDirected by Jon Bowermaster \nRuntime: 80 minutes \n

SUMMARY:Boulder Environmental Nature Outdoors Film Festival 2026: The Art of Adventure
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS\nFriday\, July 17 at 4:30PM \nBetween 1957 and 1958\, Robert Bateman and Bristol Foster undertook the adventure of a lifetime — driving a Land Rover dubbed “the Grizzly Torque” 30\,000 kilometres across Africa\, India\, Southeast Asia\, and Australia. More than just an adrenaline-pumping adventure story of two young men crossing half the planet\, The Art of Adventure maps out how Bateman and Foster’s trip inspired a love of nature that would last a lifetime. The film interweaves an account of their travels with a look their lives through the decades that followed: Bateman became a beloved Canadian wildlife painter and Foster a prominent biologist and the first director of BC’s Ecological Reserves program. Through in-depth interviews with friends and family and the original 16mm film footage of their incredible journey\, director Alison Reid shows how the trip expanded the pair’s knowledge of the physical world while deepening their spiritual and emotional connection to it. A heartwarming\, inspirational love letter to the adventure of life itself. \n-“A rare kind of documentary – intimate\, awe-filled\, and unforgettable. It reminds us that wonder isn’t childish; it’s essential.” \n-“An outstanding doc that provides joy in the self-discovery that only seems possible from exploring far off places with an open heart.” \n-“A bromance for the ages!” \n-“As much a celebration of friendship as it is of the natural world” \nDirected by Alison Reid \nRuntime: 86 mins \n\n

SUMMARY:Boulder Environmental Nature Outdoors Film Festival 2026: This Is Not A Drill
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS\nFriday\, July 17 at 7:00PM \nDiscussion afterwards with director Oren Jacoby via Zoom \nAs extreme weather around the world grows deadlier\, a new generation of leaders is rising to face the challenges. In the American South\, hard hit by climate disasters\, three unlikely heroes take on one of the most powerful industries in the world. \n25-year-old Justin J. Pearson rallies a multiracial grassroots coalition to try and defeat a crude oil pipeline in Memphis\, Tennessee. Roishetta Ozane\, a mother of six from Louisiana\, transforms personal loss into political action\, taking her fight from the storm-ravaged streets to the halls of Congress. Sharon Wilson\, a former oil insider turned methane hunter\, uses infrared cameras to expose invisible deadly gases pouring from fracking sites and pipelines in Texas that have been hiding in plain sight. \nBacking them are unlikely allies\, descendents of John D. Rockefeller\, who have turned against their family’s oil empire to expose ExxonMobil’s decades long coverup. Together\, this coalition uncovers what they call Big Oil’s “Big Con”—an industry doubling down on fossil fuels while disguising the truth. \nWith gripping access\, THIS IS NOT A DRILL is the story of courage\, betrayal and grassroots victories that shows how people\, armed with only grit and determination\, can stand up to power. The smallest voices can topple giants. \nAudience Award—Best Documentary Feature (Globe Docs) \nDirected by Oren Jacoby \nRuntime: 76 mins \n

SUMMARY:Boulder Environmental Nature Outdoors Film Festival 2026: Three Short Films About Birds
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS\nTHE BIRDS\nTold through the cinematic experience of wildlife filmmaker Martin Dohrn\, THE BIRDS finds meaning and pathos as it gets up close to one of England’s little-known wonders of the natural world. As Martin chases down the twisting and turning of giant flocks of shore birds on England’s Wash estuary\, he attempts to literally record evolution in action as a peregrine falcon scythes through the mind-blowing murmurations – astonishingly large numbers of birds flying in synchronized patterns and creating shapes in the air. Ultimately\, this feature short reveals important insights not only into the hidden mechanisms of nature\, but also into the psyche of a man facing up to the end of his career. \nDirected by Dave Allen \nRuntime: 40 minutes \n  \nWILD HOPE: BUILDING FOR BIRDS\nMillions of birds pass through our yards during their bi-annual migrations\, but they face an invisible killer along the way: glass windows. In the US alone\, an estimated one billion birds die each year when they collide with windows. Now\, two organizations help pave the way to a bird-friendly future. \nThe Smithsonian’s National Zoo in Washington\, D.C. is located in the middle of a major migration route that birds have flown for thousands of years. To stop collisions from happening on their campus\, the Zoo’s team uses patterned decals to make glass visible to our feathered friends. In New York City\, migrating birds face a gauntlet of concentrated glass – and many do not survive. The Jacob K. Javits Convention Center was once one of the city’s worst offenders\, but creative renovations have transformed the building into a wildlife oasis. \nThe Zoo and the Javits Center have inspired groundbreaking legislation that reimagines what our cities can do for birds\, but a critical obstacle remains: our residences account for nearly 50% of bird strikes. However\, simple solutions—like window paint\, decals\, or even a bar of soap with patterns spaced 2 inches apart—could save the lives of millions of birds. \nDirected by Tangle Bank Studios \nRuntime: 16 minutes \n  \nA MYSTICAL ORNITHOLOGY\nIn this lyrical portrait\, ornithologist\, poet\, and professor Drew Lanham invites us into his South Carolina farm\, where birdwatching becomes both refuge and revelation. As he listens for absent songs in the spring air\, Drew not only reckons with loss and memory but also takes action—cultivating his land as a sanctuary\, an underground railroad for winged migrants. His reflections move beyond science into wonder\, blurring the line between human and bird. For Drew\, they are more than names on a list—they are companions\, teachers\, and a last wild hope. \nDirected by Jeremy Seifert and Benjamin James Roberts \nRuntime: 11 minutes

SUMMARY:Boulder Environmental Nature Outdoors Film Festival 2026: The Lake
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS\nDirector Abby ellis will join us in person\nClimate Change Doc From Leonardo DiCaprio\, Jimmy Chin and Chai Vasarhelyi Raises Alarms About the Fate of the Great Salt Lake \nAn environmental nuclear bomb looms in Utah\, as they race to prevent a catastrophic ecological and public health collapse. \nThe Lake is a vérité film that follows three individuals (two intrepid scientists Bonnie Baxter and Ben Abbott alongside political insider Brian Steed) fighting to save a dying lake. They see what’s coming—poisoned air\, a collapsing ecosystem\, a community on the brink—and they throw themselves into the everyday\, often mundane work of trying to stop it. As they push against bureaucracy\, apathy\, and the ticking clock of a crisis decades in the making\, something eerie and heartbreaking lingers at the edges: the dust rising in the background\, a reminder of what will be lost if they fail. \n2026 Sundance Winner –  Special Jury Award for Impact for Change \n“‘The Lake’ is so much more than a regionally isolated issue documentary. Its lessons should apply to every single environmental fight around the world.” -Variety \nDirected by Abby Ellis | Runtime: 88 minutes

SUMMARY:Boulder Environmental Nature Outdoors Film Festival 2026: Burn\, Scar
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS\nFilmmaker Hillary Bachelder and Colorado Fire Suppression Professionals will join us for a discussion\nPrescribed fire– the practice of setting small burns to clear ecosystems of overgrowth– is a critical tool for climate resiliency and forest health. But in 2022\, a burn set by the U.S. Forest Service in the mountains of northern New Mexico escaped its firelines and spiraled out of control to become the largest wildfire in the state’s history. Weaving together both sides of the story –  the locals impacted by the fire and struggling to rebuild\, alongside the Forest Service’s efforts to resume stewardship of the land following their tragic misstep – “burn\, scar” is a personal and nuanced story of resilience\, resistance\, and our enduring connection to the land and each other. \nDirected by: Hillary Bachelder | Length: 90 mins
