It Takes a CommunityThe next Medford Community Forum will feature a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to plan and produce a film festival, based on the experiences of members of the team involved with the Ashland Independent Film Festival (AIFF). Participants from Executive Director Tom Olbrich to staff and volunteers will outline their respective roles in a presentation moderated by Jeff Golden. Enjoy clips from past and future AIFF films. Best of all, this event will occur on Monday, March 15 from 10:00 to noon, a time when OLLI is not in session, so there will be no conflicting classes to keep you from attending. Arrive at 9:30 for refreshments. Click here for details of the March Forum and here to save the dates for the full spring schedule.
