Up the Yangtze – March 1, 7:30 pm: The Three Gorges Dam, the world’s largest mega-dam provides the epic and unsettling backdrop for this award-winning film. At the edge of the Yangtze River, not far from the Three Gorges Damn, young men and women take up employment on a cruise ship, where they confront rising waters and a radically changing China. This dramatic and disquieting documentary explores life inside the 21st century Chinese dream and the landscapes and inhabitants it impacts.

MayDay 2012 Planning and Activities
Planning has begun for the 2012 MayDay Parade & Festival and your input is needed. Join a brainstorming meeting on Tuesday, March 27 – 7-9 pm, at the Heart of the Beast Theater building on Lake Street near Bloomington Ave. Bring your ideas, concerns, hopes and dreams about building a sustainable future — and bring your friends and neighbors! This brainstorming will shape the parade and festival. Puppet and float making occur in April.
A group of folks will be gathering on Friday, March 2, from 12-12 at Heart of the Beast Theater to brainstorm ideas surrounding the food justice and compost component of the parade, which they will then bring forward at the larger planning group. If local food and food justice inspires you, please attend this brainstorming session.
In the Heart of the Beast has a GREEN TEAM that will be working on energy, food and waste for the festival itself. Volunteers are needed for each of these ventures.
