Video Coverage of Premiere Film Night

In Mission Dolores, Scenes, The Castro, movies on June 21, 2009 at 12:24 pm

Mission Loc@l’s, Stephania Rousselle has some beautiful views of the twilight settling in over Dolores and an excellent interview with Alfonso G Felder, board member of the San Francisco Neighborhood Theater Foundation. SFNTF is the producer of Film Night in the Park. Felder is also a Noe Valley resident, senior vice president of facilities for the SF Giants and a board member of SPUR, SF Planning on Urban Research.

In Mission Loc@l’s video, Felder says he shows movies in the parks because people get to “use the parks in a way, that for many years, they have not been used; at night.” He also likes producing events in Dolores because it is a nexus of such different communities, the Mission, Noe Valley, the Castro. “Its a great place to come together because of the incredible mix of people who enjoy this park.”
