Bring your friends to “Sprawling from Grace: the Consequences of Suburbanization” Doors Open at 6:30p, and the movie begins at 7pm

Sprawling From Grace from Objective Cinema on Vimeo.

Don’t miss this thought-provoking documentary which explores the consequences of Americans who have moved from cities to suburbs, which has created an ever increasing dependence on automobiles and foreign oil.

A host of prominent figures — including former President Bill Clinton and former Governor Michael Dukakis — discuss innovative ways to build cities and our need for new energy strategies. Inexpensive energy has lulled us into a false sense of security but with the demand for oil outpacing the Earth’s ability to supply it; this suburban living arrangement has become unsustainable. A wakeup call is coming and localization is the centerpiece of the solutions we need.
