Event

Nature of the Beast
NATURE OF THE BEAST

October 1st at 9 PM

The Pacific Northwest is a great location from which to contemplate our place in nature, and animation can be a fun, poignant and effective way to express these meditations. From microscopic critters, to regular and fantastic animals, to bodies of water, and our own minds, these films feature themes that make us question our relationships with nature, each other and ourselves.
