fundraiser and program release party

Thursday, February 8 - 8:00pm

at the hungry brain

A fundraiser and program release party for the Onion CIty Experimental FIlm and Video Festival will be held at The Hungry Brain in conjunction with Seth Vanek's The Therapy Sessions. This is a free event which will include performative Q&A's by one of our 2018 juror's Amina Ross, and programmer Emily Eddy. Advance festival passes will be available for purchase and a fundraiser will be held to benefit Onion City. Therapy Sessions is where Chicagoans of taste and distinction gather to talk about grown-up stuff. Part talent showcase, part interview program, part confession booth, the show describes itself as a "talk show about feelings." Each week, Chicago's cultural movers and shakers take to the Hungry Brain couch to unpack, unburden, and unwind, under the guidance of "Chicago's Favorite Fake Therapist" and highbrow lowlife Seth Vanek. Providing moral support is Alcohol Distribution Specialist Dan. February 8th at 8:00, The Hungry Brain is located at 2319 W Belmont Ave, Chicago, IL 60618. This event is 21+.
