Frog Hollow is pleased to announce the forth and final installment of our winter 2015 film series taking place at Feldman's Bagels at 660 Pine Street.

The main features will be followed by a panel discussion focused on community members and different connections to each film.

The film is Free and Open to the Public!

On Wednesday, April 15, beginning at 7PM Frog Hollow will be screening the film Handmade Nation, a 2009 documentary by Faythe Levine

-- Handmade Nation documents the new wave of art, craft and design that is capturing the attention of the nation.First time director Faythe Levine traveled to 15 cities and covered more than 19,000 miles to interview artists, crafters, makers, curators and community members. Today's craft world has emerged as a synthesis of historical technique, punk culture, and the DIY ethos, also influenced by traditional handiwork, modern aesthetics, politics, feminism and art. Director Faythe Levine captured the tightly knit community that exists through websites, blogs, and online stores that connect to the greater public through independent boutiques, galleries and craft fairs. Interviews were conducted on-location in artist studios, homes, boutiques, offices and craft fairs, giving the public an exclusive and rarely seen look into the lives of these creative individuals. Run time is 65 minutes.

Following the episode will be a discussion with Burlington based Indie Artists Moe O'Hara, Mark Dabelstein and Arron Stein.
