Outside the Box
A film by Lacey Schwartz
At the Oregon Jewish Museum
Monday, May 14 at 7:00pm
Outside the Box tells Lacey Schwartz's story of growing up in a typical upper-middle-class Jewish household in Woodstock, NY, with loving parents and a strong sense of her Jewish identity — despite the open questions from those around her about how a white girl could have such dark skin.
Watch the in-progress film and speak with the director, Lacey Schwartz. Stay afterward for refreshments and more conversation.
General Public: $10; Members: $8

Through the Lens
Through the Lens: Portland Independent Media Wednesday, March 28 Images Coming Soon... six:social playground’s 2nd event, featured independent film and media at McMenamin's Mission Theater. It was moderated by Boaz Frankel, local filmmaker and host of The Pedal Powered Talk Show. It featured short works and clips from longer pieces and included a discussion from the local artists behind them. This is media that reaches far beyond 'just' filmmaking; from the work of Rachel Blumberg, Alissa Creamer, Alicia J. Rose and Peter Richardson.
1 WEINLAND, with Oregon Jewish Museum presents Heeb Remixed @Holocene 2/2/12 from In The Can Productions on Vimeo.
Heeb Remixed was a night dedicated to emerging Jewish musicians and songwriters. Folk-pop band WEINLAND headlined and guest-curated the line-up. Other artists included Gideon Freudmann (of Portland Cello Project) and St. Even. It was the first time in a long while that the original WEINLAND line-up had played together. This event was the first of Oregon Jewish Museum's six: social playground, a series of programs celebrating the next generation of Jewish talent in the fields of music, food, sports, film, independent media, and design/build.
