An extraordinarily rare screening of the critically admired yet unreleased film 'Dead Ringer' starring Meat Loaf is planned for January 25 in Essex, 7pm. The 1982 film has been shown only three or four times since it was produced 40 years ago. This is a nearly once in a generation opportunity to see the film. The screening is a fundraiser for two Vermont arts organizations, Big Heavy World and The Vermont International Film Festival. RSVP on Facebook! https://fb.me/e/40FnPtLQj

Big Heavy World's Tiny Museum of Vermont Music History has two important exhibits on display at the Vermont State House during January: A saxophone belonging to blues legend Big Joe Burrell, and a commemorative quilt signed by generations of UVM Lane Series artists commemorating the series' first 50 years. Both illuminate Vermont's status as a cultural crossroads and the wide-reaching appreciation Vermonters have for the performing arts.

Big Heavy World is Vermont's independent, volunteer-run music office, preserving and promoting original Vermont-made music with a crew that's mostly high school and college-aged. For more information, visit bigheavyworld.com.
