Movie Night in Uptown Oakland

Laugh and cry at our big screen movie night on March 17

On Wednesday, March 17, we'll watch the excellent documentary "Taken for a Ride", which tells the heartbreaking story of how public transportation was systematically dismantled in the mid-1900's. (Warning: you may cry when you see streetcars being torched.)

Then we'll lighten things up with some hilarious clips from the 1950's promoting the suburbs and imagining life "in the future".

Viewing will run from 6-7:30, with attendees invited to stay and chat until 8pm.

This "TransForay" will be held at the ultra-comfy, high-tech screening room at the Uptown Apartments in Oakland.

Wine, popcorn, and other treats will be served.

TransForays are free for TransForm members and $5 for non-members (become a member for just $40).

The Uptown Apartments are located at 500 William Street in Oakland, just two blocks from the 19th Street BART Station.

Register by March 15 at 11:59pm, please!  Events do sell out.
