About the event
From the depths of the Basement Films Archive comes an evening of fascinating film artifacts from the 20th century, presented on real live celluloid.
The Basement Films Archive is the largest film archive of its kind in the Southwest, consisting of thousands of donated and salvaged 16mm and 8mm motion picture films. The collection consists of educational films, industry films, short films, feature films, home movies, documentaries, church films, social justice films, artist films, and more from the 1940’s through the 1980’s. The archive is managed by Basement Films and housed by the Central New Mexico Community College Library at their location at the Advanced Technology Center.
