SUMMARY:The Animation Block Party
DESCRIPTION:In 2003-04\, Casey Safron was hosting animation screenings in downtown Manhattan. These pre-YouTube era events quickly grew in popularity. Safron’s college roommate owned a coffee shop in East Williamsburg called The Archive that had access to a screen down the block. The first official Animation Block Party took place on Sept. 9\, 2004. \nIn 2005\, Animation Block Party (ABP) received corporate sponsorship and began working with the Brooklyn Academy of Music. ABP partnered with Rooftop Films in 2006 and evolved into a four day festival as attendance grew by thousands each July. Over the past 15 years\, ABP has presented holiday events for Valentine’s\, Halloween\, etc.\, and hosted showcases in cities ranging from Stockholm to London\, New Orleans and Los Angeles. \nAnimation Block Party’s 15th annual summerfest is July 26-29\, 2018

SUMMARY:Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind - Studio Ghibli Festival!
DESCRIPTION:NAUSICAA\, the debut film from Oscar winner Hayao Miyazaki tells the story of a young princess\, both brave and innocent\, whose love for all living things and passion for understanding the processes of nature lead her into danger\, sacrifice\, and eventual triumph. Set in a devastated future world decimated by atmospheric poisons and swarming with gigantic insects\, there is no good or evil\, but rather conflicting viewpoints\, weaknesses\, and power struggles. Considered to be his best masterpiece\, Miyazaki’s NAUSICAA is awe-inspiring and not to be missed.

SUMMARY:Cartoon Carnival 68: Queer Here
DESCRIPTION:It’s time to sit back and relax for nearly two hours of more archival 16mm (no digital!) animated cartoons from the 1920s to the 1940s\, straight from the Stathes Archives to that secret silver screen in Bushwick… \nJune is Pride Month! For the first time in its nine year run\, the Tommy Stathes Cartoon Carnival showcases an under-acknowledged population in animation’s past. \nThroughout history\, derogatory stereotyping of minority groups has been recurring theme in popular culture and the mainstream media. Animated films were certainly no exception\, and a large portion of animation history is plagued with denigrating material. In addition to the overt racism and sexism present in a lot of early animation\, characters meant to represent members of the queer/transgender community were occasionally included in cameo appearances—serving as tropes\, stereotypes\, and tokens\, without contributing much to a film’s plot. In a couple of other cases\, these characters were headliners—a certain famous bunny comes to mind—although this aspect of their identities\, while blatant and sometimes narrative-driving\, went mostly unaddressed in open dialogues until recent years.  \nThis special Pride edition of the Cartoon Carnival is respectfully curated by and for LGBTQIA+ individuals as well as their allies. Locking our difficult history away in vaults or completely erasing it helps no one. Some of these problematic images and attitudes are sadly not relegated only to the past\, either. So\, come on out with your loved ones as we focus on this obscure area of animation history\, while hopefully reclaiming it in a positive light for a community that needs all the support it can get…every month of the year. \nBar refreshments and light food available (i.e. hot dogs\, hamburgers\, etc.) —Support the venue!— \nShow tix $10 at the door. Doors at 6pm.\n~Arrive on time for good seats~

Picture This! is a live comedy show with stand-ups performing while they are drawn live by some of the best animators\, cartoonists\, and other artists in Hollywood\, CA\, SF\, NYC and Portland. Picture This! has also debuted in Toronto\, New Zealand and Australia! The comedians don’t know what the animators are drawing and the animators don’t know how the comedians will react. \nIt may be weird. \nIt may different. \nBut it will be FUNNY! \n“This is a super cool show\, I’m proud to be a part of it!“ – Jay Larson \n”Brandie Posey & Sam Varela have something very cool going on here…the results are organic\, highly entertaining and often times hilarious.” – The Interrobang  \n“It’s a deceptively simple idea…a good exercise for the performers to keep their improv instincts sharp and it’s good entertainment watching funny people goof off.” – Portland Mercury \n“If you like animated comedies\, how about animated stand-up comedy?… It’s just like having your portrait drawn at a fair\, only instead of mildly insulting caricatures\, you get to see one-of-a-kind depictions of what’s going on inside funny people’s heads.” – Vulture \n“The amicable marriage of sight\, sound and more sight…each [artist and comedian] performing their due diligence to visualize this crazy thing called funny.” – Spinning Platters \n“The dynamic between comedian and illustrator can be push and pull\, but when it works\, they’re ultimately moving in the same direction.” – The Comic’s Comic \n“Often\, the drawings are just as funny as the standup\, enhancing and occasionally stealing the show.. A comedian might have a prepared set that gets thrown totally into a tangent when the illustrator adds their own input or sketches a crude figure that takes the joke to the next level. There’s also a high potential for verbal vs. visual banter.” – LAist \n“An inherent irony existed in the disparity between two disciplines identified by the term “comic” – Spinning Platters \n“Our animators are joke-tellers\, too\, they just process the same bits visually versus verbally\, it’s always so cool to see your bit from a different angle you hadn’t thought to explore! I always feel like I’m dealing with the most talented heckler in the room on the show – once you surrender yourself to the idea that you’ll never be as dynamic.” – Brandie Posey \n“The show is growing fast. Comedians perform while comedy’s best illustrators create masterpieces based on what they’re hearing on stage\, live. You get to watch the process and it’s a really fun time.” – The Interrobang\, Top Five Shows Out of Towners Need to See \n“Stand-up comedy typically hinges on performers maintaining total power and control. Yet these shows put a premium on experimentation and vulnerability\, humanizing the comics in the process.” – LA Weekly

SUMMARY:Secret Cinema: NYC's Cartoon Roots with Tommy José Stathes
DESCRIPTION:The Secret Cinema presents NEW YORK CITY’S CARTOON ROOTS \nOn Saturday\, June 9\, the Secret Cinema’s screening at the Fleisher Art Memorial will include a very special guest: early animation historian and film archivist Tommy José Stathes\, who will provide a look into New York’s budding animation industry of the 1910s and 1920s.  \nThe program is called NEW YORK CITY’S CARTOON ROOTS. With a selection of rare archival 16mm prints from Stathes’ personal archive\, a fairly comprehensive cross-section of this silent-era subgenre will showcase the work of pioneers such as Winsor McCay\, Raoul Barré\, Earl Hurd\, Otto Messmer\, Max Fleischer and Paul Terry. Fledgling cartoon superstars like Bobby Bumps\, Koko the Clown\, Felix the Cat\, Farmer Alfalfa\, Krazy Kay\, and Mutt & Jeff will all be included. \nStathes will give an informative introduction about this fascinating\, yet little-studied period of animation\, and answer questions about the films. \nThere will be one complete show at 8:00 pm. Admission is $9.00.  \nAs usual\, this Secret Cinema program will be projected in 16mm film on a giant screen (not video). \nThe screening will be shown in the beautiful Sanctuary of the Fleisher Art Memorial in Philadelphia’s Bella Vista neighborhood (just South of Center City). Free parking is available in the Fleisher’s parking lot\, just across the street. \nJust a few of the films to be included are: \nCARTOONS ON TOUR (Barré\, 1915)\nBOBBY BUMPS PUTS A BEANERY ON THE BUM (Hurd\, 1918)\nTHE FLYING HOUSE (McCay\, 1921)\nTHE TANTALIZING FLY (Fleischer\, 1919)\nTHE GREAT CHEESE ROBBERY (Bray Studios\, 1920)\nFELIX REVOLTS (Messmer\, 1923)\nBARNYARD ARTISTS (Terry\, 1928) \n…and much more. \nTommy José Stathes is an archivist\, historian\, distributor\, and educator in the realm of early animated films. Stathes is best known in film history circles for creating the Bray Animation Project research initiative; the Cartoons On Film early animation re-release label and Cartoon Roots Blu-rays; supplying early animated films to and co-hosting them on Turner Classic Movies; as well as for his 16mm “Cartoon Carnival” film screening series in New York City. Stathes is also a faculty member at the School of Visual Arts and the Feirstein Graduate School of Cinema\, and is Consulting Producer on CARTOON CARNIVAL: THE DOCUMENTARY\, which is soon to be released. \nSECRET CINEMA WEBSITE: http://www.thesecretcinema.com  \nFLEISHER ART MEMORIAL WEBSITE: http://fleisher.org
