My name is Dana and I work with the Rooftop Films Summer Film Series. This week we have two great shows coming up that I thought you might be interested in covering: one is a program of short films about doomed love, the other a free screening about the life of tattooing legend Norman “Sailor Jerry” Collins. There will be live music before the films and after parties after both shows. Details below. Let me know if you’d like to be added to the press list for Friday’s show. If you’d like to attend Saturday’s free show, just email: sjrsvp@rooftopfilms.com. It would be great if you could spread the word.
Thanks!
Dana
