Are you stuck at home due to Covid-19 and/or winter weather? Getting excited about the Academy Awards? Interested in viewing a series of short films made by women and supporting their work? Looking for a fun way to support the FAWCO Target Project? If you answered, “yes” to any of these questions, join us for our virtual LUNAFEST screening in anticipation of the Oscars (April 25) and in celebration of women in film.
FAUSA’s virtual screening will start on Friday, April 16 at 5pm EST. Ticket holders will have 48 hours from that time to activate their tickets, and 24 hours after activation to watch the films. Ticket holders will also be invited to a Zoom event on Sunday, April 18 at 7pm EST for a discussion of the films and a virtual pre-Oscar party.
The proceeds of this event will benefit the FAWCO Target Project, S.A.F.E. (Safe Alternatives for Female Genital Mutilation), a project of Hope for Girls and Women Tanzania (HGWT). HGWT advocates for an end to female genital mutilation (FGM) and other harmful practices affecting women and children in Tanzania, including intimate partner violence, child marriage and other forms of violence.
