<DIV>We are soliciting venues for our traveling film event, <EM>ArchaeologyFest
Film Series</EM>. 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.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Each year we put together this traveling mini-Festival incorporating the
best films of <STRONG><EM>The Archaeology Channel</EM></STRONG> International
Film Festival (<A href="http://www.archaeologychannel.org/content/TACfestival.shtml">http://www.archaeologychannel.org/content/TACfestival.shtml</A>),
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.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>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.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Please respond to this request as soon as possible to the e-mail address or
phone number listed below. Thank you!</DIV>
