Sing-alongs to silent movies to gourmet dinners, Prescott Film Festival Offers Moviedom Variety

by Helen Stephenson, Executive Director and Founder, Prescott Film Festival

The 10th annual Prescott Film Festival opens June 7 with the Prescott-produced film “Wish Man.” (See facing page for details.) Frank Shankwitz and his wife Kitty are scheduled to attend for a Q&A after the film. Get your tickets early as this is expected to sell out.

The Prescott Film Festival is as unique as our hometown. Marvelous films (of course) but also special events and workshop/film talk experiences.

This year we are featuring two gourmet dinners with a movie opportunities. The first is June 10 at 5:30 p.m. We will feature a gourmet dinner prepared by Chef Robert Barr of the Sedona Culinary School of Yavapai College paired with multiple wines from the Southwest Wine Center of Yavapai College. Includes ticket to the film “Olympia.” “Olympia” is a beautiful film that offers insightful humor and artistic creativity wrapped around a compelling story.

June 12 at 5:30 p.m. is the second gourmet dinner. This one will be prepared by El Gato Azul. Following an amazing dinner, join us for the new film, “Ruben Brandt, Collector.”

This fast-paced animated heist film, (rated R) is incredibly creative. Four expert thieves attempt to steal every famous artwork haunting their mutual psychotherapist. Whether you are a fan of art, animation or heist films, you do not want to miss this one-of-a-kind film.

The festival is bringing two musical events to the community. On June 15, we will present Silent Symphony featuring the Mont Alto Motion Picture Orchestra from Colorado to accompany the classic silent Buster Keaton comedy, “The General.” For over 25 years, Mont Alto has been delighting audiences across the country from Lincoln Center to the Telluride Film Festival and beyond. Musicians are known for their authentic photoplay style, which allows the music to speak for the film, just as music did over a century ago when films were not “talkies.”

Preceding the Silent Symphony at 5:30 p.m., is Spirits of Arizona in the Garden. The event, in the Yavapai College Sculpture Garden, will offer four tastings of local beers, wines and spirits paired with foods from Lucky’s Barbecue and Panera along with music from The Ping Brothers. Tickets include a reserved seat for the Silent Symphony event at 7 p.m.

The second musical event is “The Sound of Music” Sing-A-Long. Get ready to yodel Prescott! This is your chance to experience one of the funniest, most liberating outings you will have for a long time.

Sing-A-Long “Sound of Music” is not just a chance to see the classic movie on the big screen in magnificent Technicolor, it’s a major audience participation event with subtitles for all the songs. Come dressed as your favorite character, sing along with Julie and join in earnest choruses of “My Favorite Things!” Kym Karath, (the actress who played Gretl) is scheduled to attend.

There will also be free workshops, an outdoor screening and Platinum Pass Perks.

LOCAL NEWS: The Northern Arizona VA in Prescott has provided an update on their Homeless Veteran Program. . . .PRESCOTT, Ariz. – The Northern Arizona VA Health Care System’s Homeless Veteran Program, along with its community partners, housed 445 Veterans in 2022, exceeding their target goal by 157%.Nationally, the 2022 goal was to house 38,000 homeless Veterans— a goal that was exceeded by 6.3%. The Department of Veterans Affairs remains committed to ending Veteran homelessness and increasing housing placements is critical to achieving this goal.“This success is a result of efforts built on the evidence-based ‘Housing First’ approach, which prioritizes getting a Veteran into housing, then provides the Veteran with the support they need to stay housed,” said Steve Sample, Medical Center Director.In Northern Arizona, there are a variety of services designed to house homeless Veterans. The VA’s Health Care for Homeless Veterans (HCHV) Program includes VA Supportive Housing (HUD-VASH) vouchers that provide formerly homeless Veterans with subsidized housing and a wraparound, interdisciplinary case management team to address issues that may have contributed to homelessness. The program provides justice outreach services, employment services, health care services through the Homeless Patient Aligned Care Team, outreach, and transitional housing support. The VA also works closely with community partners to house homeless Veterans through a system called Coordinated Entry, where community agencies along with the VA regularly meet to coordinate efforts and ensure homeless Veterans do not fall through the cracks.“We are fortunate that there is so much support for helping homeless Veterans in our area,” said Jessica Taylor, Homeless Program Coordinator for the Northern Arizona VA. “This success could not have been possible without great collaboration between our community partners, Housing Authorities, Tribal partnerships, and support from our local communities.”Looking ahead, the VA will continue to explore new avenues to house homeless Veterans and overcome housing barriers. In collaboration with U.S VETS, Gorman & Company, and the Arizona Department of Housing, a supportive housing project on the grounds of the VA’s Fort Whipple campus is in the initial planning stages. The VA is also expanding outreach to ensure that homeless Veterans are aware of services available to them. For Veterans who are homeless or at imminent risk of homelessness— or if you know of homeless Veterans in need of assistance, call 877-424-3838.For more information on renting to or hiring homeless Veterans, visit: www.va.gov/homelessAbout the Northern Arizona VA: Through its main campus in Prescott, along with Community Based Outpatient Clinics (CBOCs) in Cottonwood, Flagstaff, Kingman, Lake Havasu City, and Anthem— with additional clinics in Tuba City, Page, Kayenta, Chinle, Holbrook, and Polacca, the Northern Arizona VA provides services to approximately 33,000 Veterans over a catchment area of more than 65,000 square miles.. . .www.facebook.com/VAPrescott ...
