Neighborhood Bike Works -
Dear Friends,
Hope you can come out and enjoy tomorrow evening with the Jubilee School
and NBW watching some films in the park.
This Friday, the Scribe Video Center will be hosting its annual Street
Movies series at Clark Park. The event is sponsored by NBW and the
Jubilee School <http://www.jubileeschool.net>. It is scheduled to start
at 8:30 pm and is listed to take place at 45th between Chester and
Kingsessing. This event is produced in order to showcase issues
important to NBW including environmental justice and green modes of
transportation. Three of the movies being shown are:
/E-Waste/ by Ian Lynam

These films will be followed by brief discussion panels. Some of the
panel and members of the audience will be actors, producers and others
involved with making these films. If you are not busy on Friday night
this is a great opportunity to ride your bike and take in a sort of
bike-in movie. The website <www.scribe.org>for Scribe Video Center

other events around the city. Scribe Video Center may also be contacted
