Let's watch Uncle Roy, Open Space Arts screening at Facets
Details
As this is more of an announcement posting rather than our typical structured events, this will not have the $1 fee. Still, feel free to find your hosts and say hi! :)
This is the Chicago premiere of UNCLE ROY, a documentary portrait of Roy Blakey, a pioneering figure skater, collector, and photographer who became known for his influential male nude photography in New York’s art world. Tracing Roy’s journey from Depression-era beginnings and international ice shows to his role documenting queer culture, the film becomes a moving exploration of family, memory, and legacy.
Show time is 7 p.m. sharp - no commercials or previews. Optional talk-back in the lobby lounge after the film.
If interested in meeting before the show for dinner, please contact the host of this Meetup event.
This screening is sponsored by Open Space Arts as part of the Queer Expression Film Festival, and you can purchase a ticket from them directly here:
