Luncheon: Heroes of the Silver Screen with Gus Mollasis

Love to go to the movies? Register now for this luncheon to learn more about memorable screen stars such as James Cagney and Pat O’Brian, Bogey and Bergman, Frank Capra, Jimmy Stewart and other legends who influenced the movie stars of today. 

Writer, producer and film maker Gus Mollasis will take us through history with film clips of these heroes in some of their most famous roles that elevated this art form in our culture. Gus is co-creator of the award-winning PBS series “Diamonds Along the Highway” focusing on Florida’s people, places and history.

He has used his love and knowledge of film to work closely with Sarasota’s two respected film institutions – The Sarasota Film Society and the Sarasota Film Festival – educating, entertaining and engaging audiences in film, the art form we all love. Claim your seat by registering now for this stimulating program.

Meet & Mingle: There is social time that begins at 11 am before lunch. Come early to meet other members and friends who also love the arts.
