Community Announcement
Thursday, November 14th at 6pm | Capitol Theatre, Windsor, Ontario
In addition to the screening of Fantastic Fungi, we have teamed up with FreshCap Mushrooms to bring their delicious and nutritious products to our November 14th event to join us in helping our community!
100% of proceeds received from the sale of their products will go to The Kids First Food Bank at Windsor Homes Coalition at 900 Howard Avenue in Windsor, Ontario. A few weeks back I read an article on CTV Windsor regarding WFHCP and that they had to close their doors because they ran out of food. In light of this our donations, with Your help, will go to feed those in need.
As we wish to attract further food/clothes donations, anyone that brings canned goods, warm socks, gloves, hats or other, to be donated, will receive a bag of Truffle Salted Popcorn to enjoy with the Fantastic Fungi film which will begin at 8pm at the Capitol Theatre. We urge you to donate, from food to warm socks and/or mittens, as we will accept all that will feed those in need and keep them warm this holiday season. Together we can make our communities better!
| Fantastic Fungi
a film by Louie Schwartzberg
| November 14th, 2019 | Doors 18h | 19+
βWhen so many are struggling for connection, inspiration and hope, Fantastic Fungi brings us together as interconnected creators of our world.
Fantastic Fungi, directed by Louie Schwartzberg, is a consciousness-shifting film that takes us on an immersive journey through time and scale into the magical earth beneath our feet, an underground network that can heal and save our planet. Through the eyes of renowned scientists and mycologists like Paul Stamets, best-selling authors Michael Pollan, Eugenia Bone, Andrew Weil and others, we become aware of the beauty, intelligence and solutions the fungi kingdom offers us in response to some of our most pressing medical, therapeutic, and environmental challenges.β
