SLC Film Center | DAMN THESE HEELS! Karaoke Fundraiser

Beyond Black and White



This is a Book and Movie lovers club for those who like to read amazing books and watch killer movies together. As intellects and aspiring intellects, we will discuss the intricacies of these great films and books and hopefully enlighten and uplift each other with our different perspectives and life experiences. It is the best way to enjoy a good book or a good movie as a group.

We will be meeting every other Tuesday and it starts this Tuesday, May 19th at 8 PM in Utah AIDS Foundation - group room. This is moderated by one of our Villagers - Alex Larson and Richard Matthews. So come and join us for another program of The Village.

Fancy Feet runs TODAY!!!



We are still on the process of building this new program of The Village called Fancy Feet. Some of us love to go jog, run, bike or even walk but we love to be active and think healthy all the time.

We are scheduled to run, walk or jog on every Monday, Thursday and/or Saturday from 7PM and we are planning to run Memory Grove and maybe up to Capitol Hill and Jordan River Parkway. We will be meeting at the mouth of the Memory Grove Park.

This program is moderated by one of our own Villager - Young Han. So join us or should I say run with us!
