About Canyon Cinema

An organization moving in new directions, Canyon is pleased to present a showcase of films gleaning from that 50 year history. In tonight's  program, the gamut of this extraordinary work is represented; from the unsung  psychedelic animator to the most celebrated avant-garde filmmaker, no stone goes unturned in the good work performed by these moving image archives.
