FREE FILM : NYC
OPENING RECEPTION
Friday, June 21
6PM - 9PM
7 Knickerbocker Ave, Brooklyn, NY
The day of the opening reception of the FREE FILM : NYC Exhibition!
Over the last two years the FREE FILM Airstream has traveled to Red Hook, the Lower East Side, the South Bronx, Sunset Park, Harlem and East Williamsburg to distribute free rolls of 35mm film to local analog photographers. Given the prompt phrase “ONE SQUARE MILE”, these photographers capture images as they feel the theme resonates with them. Opening on June 21st at WORTHLESSSTUDIOS, the FREE FILM : NYC Exhibition culminates the project by showcasing over 400 black and white images from 150+ photographers and presenting the newest archive of images for us to forever remember New York City.
