Invites You to Attend our Monthly Symposium

This month's presentation:

The City Dark

 Documentary screening & discussion

"When you look at the night sky, you realize how small we are.”

Are we less likely to see ourselves as part of nature if modern lighting prevents us from seeing the stars at night? The City Dark — winner, “Grand Jury Prize, Best Feature,” Yale Environmental Film Festival, is an investigation of how modern light pollution is changing our relationship with the cosmos. Join us in viewing this excellent film and exploring related questions. Film screening and group discussion will be led by Texas Interfaith Power and Light’s Yaira Robinson and guest local clergy. Hope to see you next Tuesday!

When: Tue, 1/8/13, 7pm to 8:30pm
Where: St. David’s Episcopal Church
301 East 8th Street, 78701 (downtown Austin)
no cost to attend; free parking on site
