World Environment Day Film Screening
Thu, 4 Jun, 6pm - 8pm
Ivanhoe Library and Cultural Hub
Free event, please RSVP
Join City of Banyule for a special World Environment Day film screening and community conversation exploring environmental activism, connection to Country and the power of local action, presented in partnership with Env.
The evening will feature two inspiring short films, Outpicker and another short film (to be announced) followed by a conversation with guest speakers and opportunities for community connection and discussion.
Outpicker shares the story of a Chinese queer immigrant in Melbourne who discovers belonging, connection and purpose through community litter picking. Through small environmental acts, the film highlights the importance of community, inclusion and taking local action.
The films offer both local and broader perspectives on environmental advocacy and activism, celebrating storytelling, community resilience and the many ways people can create positive change.
Following the screenings, attendees are invited to stay for a panel discussion, light refreshments and opportunities to connect with local community and environmental groups.
