Film Screening, "The Palestine Laboratory"
Thursday Feb 19th, 7:00 pm
1st Unitarian Church, 3114 Harney St

Based on the book by award-winning journalist Antony Loewenstein, The Palestine Laboratory reveals how Israel has turned Palestine into a testing ground for weapons and surveillance technologies. In two parts, the film first exposes how these tools are trialled on Palestinians, then follows their export across the world-from authoritarian regimes to Western democracies-entrenching systems of repression far beyond Palestine.

Film Screening
"We Never Left" A Film by Loulwa Khoury

Thursday, Jan 15th, 7:00 pm
1st Unitarian Church, 3114 Harney St.

Directed by Loulwa Khoury, We Never Left follows three Lebanese expats living in New York City as they fight for revolution in their homeland from afar. As Lebanon faces political upheaval, economic collapse, and mass protest, the film explores what it means to resist from exile, while dealing with personal reckonings and emotional ruptures unfold.

Caught between distance and devotion, the filmmakers and subjects confront questions of diaspora identity, responsibility, activism, and belonging. What it means to stay connected to home even when home feels impossibly far away.

Thrift4Gaza is back 🤍
A two-day community thrift fundraiser supporting on-the-ground organizations and families in Gaza.

St. Timothy Lutheran Church - North Entrance

We are accepting:

To help keep this manageable for volunteers, we’re kindly asking for up to 2 bags per individual or family.

Items donated on day 1 will be sorted and sold at the Jan 24 thrift sale

Film Screening 🎬

From Ground Zero
📅 Tuesday, Dec 18 | 🕖 7:00 PM
📍 1st Unitarian Church
3114 Harney St.

Official submission of Palestine for Best International Feature Film at the 97th Academy Awards (2025).

From Executive Producer Michael Moore, From Ground Zero is a powerful collection of 22 short films by Palestinian filmmakers living and creating under siege in Gaza. Through animation, documentary, fiction, and experimental cinema, these 3–6 minute stories capture daily life amid gen-cide — the grief, the resilience, and the unbreakable spirit of the people.

Despite impossible conditions, Gaza’s vibrant artistic voice shines through.
Join us for an intimate, urgent, and deeply human cinematic experience.
