FREEZE FRAME FUNDRASIER bringing great films to Beacon March 12 & 13, 2011 In addition to theatre and music, we very much would like to bring great films to the Beacon Theatre. Participating in our first Beacon Freeze Frame is one way you can help, starting with these two great documentaries:

Herb and Dorothy is a multi-award-winning documentary about Herb and Dororthy Vogel - a postal worker and a librarian, who with very modest means, managed to build one of the most important contemporary art collections in history. Several of the artists Herb and Dorothy collected are housed or have been featured at the Dia:Beacon museum. "...engagingly cinematic and enormously endearing" -NPR "...modest and touching" - The New York Times
Fresh is a captivating film about the farmers, thinkers, and business people across America who are re-inventing our food system. Fresh features farmer and activist, Joel Salatin of The Omnivore's Dilemma, sustainable farmer Will Allen (recipient of the MacArthur's 2008 Genius Award), and a host of leading thinkers on how we can change our food system right now. "a nail-biting wake-up call to action...an important film that is inspirational, swiftly edited, and beautifully scored." - Moving Pictures Magazine
