“To achieve great things, two things are needed. A plan and not quite enough time.”

-Leonard Bernstein

We’re really putting that quote to test as our short film on Corita Kent fittingly premieres this Friday the 13th as part of “Passion for the Possible: The Work of Sister Corita”, the unbelievable exhibit of her art. Pulling the vampire editing shifts since the beginning of the year at Cutters with Aaron Rose and Money Mark have made for many a late night and way too many early mornings, like today. But in doing so, we just might of made a film that Corita herself would be proud of. Please read on for the details:

Come spend this Valentine’s Day weekend with your favorite radical pop art nun from the 60’s, Corita Kent. The retrospective art show, “Passion For the Possible”, opens this Saturday afternoon from 1-4pm at the CSUN Art Gallery and is curated by Aaron Rose with cooperation from the Corita Art Center. And not only will you see an amazing collection of Corita’s art, but you’ll also be able to hand-silkscreen your own Valentine’s presents while being serenaded by an all ladies choir featuring some very special guests conducted by Lavendar Diamond’s Becky Stark with musical arrangements by Flea. All with enough time to spare for your Valentine’s evening plans. And in addition to this special show and our film’s premiere, 2 other short films on Sister Corita which were expertly made by Baylis Glascock during the 60’s will also be screening.
