[OR_Archaeology] Looking for venues for ArchaeologyFest Film Series

[RPettigrew at aol.com]

We are soliciting venues for our traveling film event, ArchaeologyFest  
Film Series.  If you are connected with or know of an organization the  might 
like to be a part of this annual activity, please read this information  and 
respond as indicated below.
 
Each year we put together this traveling mini-Festival incorporating the  
best films of The Archaeology Channel International  Film Festival 
(_http://www.archaeologychannel.org/content/TACfestival.shtml_ 
(http://www.archaeologychannel.org/content/TACfestival.shtml) ),  which takes place each May in 
Eugene.  This is the only juried competition  in the Western Hemisphere for 
films relating to archaeology and cultural  heritage. Our traveling film series 
this season will comprise a group of about  seven of the best films from 
TAC Festival 2010 as judged by our jury and our  audience.  These are among 
the best films of their kind in the world.   We take this on the road to live 
audiences in communities around Oregon.   This is both a way to fulfill our 
public mission as a nonprofit organization  through sharing the content of 
TAC Festival more widely and a form of promotion  for TAC Festival.  We begin 
the tour in August or September 2010 and end in  February 2011.  At each 
venue we show each film once.  We see this  program as an integral part of TAC 
Festival.
 
We are looking for venues distributed around the state.  Ideally, each  
venue will have its own interested community that is willing to help organize  
and promote the event.  The equipment setup does not need to be fancy, but  
we would need a screen and a digital projector.  We are willing to pay  
venue rental, as long as it is affordable and can be covered by ticket  sales.
 
Please respond to this request as soon as possible to the e-mail address or 
 phone number listed below.  Thank you!
