Moonlight Film Festival at WKAR | The Great American Read

Moonlight Film Festival: WKAR and The Great American Read - Now showing in WKAR Studios!
WKAR

FREE -- Wed. Aug. 22, 7:00pm in WKAR Studio A | The family viewing of the feature film The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe is back on! 

Due to technical difficulties WKAR was unable to show the film at Valley Court Park on August 16 but is excited to reschedule and offer this special event once again!

The movie is a special presentation of the East Lansing Moonlight Film Festival, and celebrates one of The Great American Read top 100 novels. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and movie starts at 7:00 p.m. WKAR will provide chairs but attendees are allowed to bring blankets to sit on.

Before the film, the first 50 fans that check in at the WKAR table will receive either a unicorn horn or a lion mask. Fans are also encouraged to dress as their favorite character from The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. The best costume will win a prize!

Since WKAR Studio A is a television studio, no food or drinks are allowed in the studio.

More About "The Great American Read"
The Great American Read
is an eight-part series, hosted by Meredith Vieira, that explores and celebrates the power of reading, told through the prism of America’s 100 best-loved novels (as chosen in a national survey).  It investigates how and why writers create their fictional worlds, how we as readers are affected by these stories, and what these 100 different books have to say about our diverse nation and our shared human experience.

The series is the centerpiece of an ambitious multi-platform digital, educational and community outreach campaign, designed to get the country reading and passionately talking about books.
