Independent DocuFilm Series

6:00pm-7:15pm, 536 Ouray Ave., Grand Junction

Join us for the 4th installment of our Independent DocuFilm Series cohosted with Junktown Cinema Club. We will be screening "Women Are the more...0 Change" following with a Q&A with film creator Linda Stout. Sub-Saharan Africa is poised for sweeping change. Educated women are the agents of this change. They are the mothers of a new Africa. This is the story of African girls and how educating them can change everything. The women in the film grew up as ordinary girls, struggling with traumas of war, loss of innocence and obstacles of culture. And yet they are now extraordinary women - educated and giving back to their communities. ? Join us on a journey to see how educating these girls has changed their fates and has started a new chain pulling others along.

Enjoy an intimate night of acoustic music with Colorado-based, Americana and blues singer/songwriter David Starr and mandolin player Erik Stucky. more...0 David has honed his decades-long career touring internationally and sharing the stage with esteemed artists such as John Oates (Hall & Oates) and John McEuen, as well as opening for acts like America, Jim Messina, Karla Bonoff, Survivor, and more. In 2022, he was a showcasing artist at Folk Alliance International, AmericanaFest, and Southwest Regional Folk Alliance. David’s latest project Better Me, features acoustic-driven songs such as the title track and “Closer To You,” the feisty blues-rock “Poison The Water,” as well as “Any Chance Of Going Home,” showcasing Starr’s masterful storytelling. For his 2020 Touchstones project, Starr covered the music that shaped his own, including "I've Got To Use My Imagination" (Gladys Knight) and "These Days" (Jackson Browne). His critically acclaimed album Beauty & Ruin is a collection of songs inspired by Of What Was, Nothing Is Left, a novel written by Starr’s grandfather in 1972. Produced and arranged by John Oates, it is a southern gothic tale beautifully told through Starr’s own musical lens. His prestige extends beyond the stage, having launched Starr’s Guitars in Little Rock, before relocating to Cedaredge, CO in 2001, where it is now a beloved institution. Starr is also a founding member of the board for the Grand Mesa Arts & Events Center in Cedaredge, an intimate event space aimed at attracting musicians and visual artists to Colorado’s Western Slope.
