Arbor Day Film Screening: "City of Trees"
Hollins University 7916 Williamson Road , Roanoke, Virginia 24019
As a part of Hollins’ Arbor Day celebration, join us for a public screening of the film <em>City of Trees.</em> Focused on “telling authentic stories”, the filmmakers of Meridian Hill Pictures tell the story of an urban forestry program's attempts to counteract poverty, violence, and unemployment. Set in Washington, D.C., this film tells the story of the nonprofit Washington Parks & People and how they handled the complicated task of making the most of grant funding to support their community.
