Harry Smith — the experimental filmmaker, painter, and perhaps the most influential record-collector of all time— would be 100 years old this year. The NYFVC is thrilled to be part of the celebrations with a return to the The Brooklyn Folk Festival at the beautiful St. Ann’s Church in Brooklyn Heights to help put on a special late-night screening of Smith’s animations, accompanied by a live improvised score by Peter Stampfel (Holy Modal Rounders, The Fugs).

Program starts around 11pm, but there will be great music all night long.

Tickets to the Brooklyn Folk Festival here. (Highlights include performances by the legendary Ramblin’ Jack Elliot, Alice Gerrard, Alynda Segarra, and David Johansen).

Walk up tickets to the screening only: $15 at the door, come after 10:30pm

Current NYFVC Members RSVP here and we’ll get you on the guest list (for the Screening Only).
